I'm not sure of everything I did to get clisp running.  I did not
actually compile it, just ran the make recipe to install it.  I think
only the following things were needed:

install termcap-compat
symlink some lib files so that 
        libtermcap.so.2 => /lib/libtermcap.so.2.0.8
        libX11.so.6 => /usr/X11R6/lib/libX11.so.6.1
        libc.so.5 => /lib/libc.so.5.4.13
are satisfied

Nothing about ncurses, guess that's why you should get termcap-compat.
I'm running Debian 1.2 now and clisp runs fine.

Hope this helps
