I don't know how much of a problem this will be for you. I installed urwid with easy_install, it's also available with apt-get or as a tarball that you install with setup.py. It does have a compiled piece so you can't just include it with the rest of your app. You may be able to integrate it with a setup.py for your app. I am new to curses and urwid but at a quick look urwid seems much easier to use...
