Why not install kismet using synaptics instead of trying to build it from source? If you insist on installing from source, then you need to install libncurses and libncurses-dev.

You need to run Synaptic or the Add/Remove Software program and search for libncurses-dev, then select it for installation. You can even install kismet using the same tools.
