Thanks for this!
As for me, in case anyone got ncurses not found error at initial attempt, make sure to add CFLAGS="-I$HOME/.local/include -I$HOME/.local/include/ncurses" on line 30.

If it tells you events.h not found,
like in here:
tmux/tmux#1084
make sure you add $HOME/.local/lib64
LDFLAGS="-static -L$HOME/.local/lib -L$HOME/.local/lib64"on line 30.
It happened for me.
