I am guessing your host machine is ubuntu 12.04 (Precise)??

If so, I faced similar problem sometime back and I tried lot of things to resolve the same.
I am not remembering the exact steps or sequences but please do check this:

1. check for build-essential package: sudo apt-get build-essential
2. sometimes in 12.04 apt-get fails with --fix-missing suggestion, so carefully check the same do sudo apt-get update --fix-missing and then apt-get install <package> again.
3. install these packages:
sudo apt-get install libncurses5 libncurses5-dev libelf-dev libncurses5
libncursesw5-dev
Another best way to install any packages in Ubuntu,
1. visit http://packages.ubuntu.com/
2. find required package for required Ubuntu version.
3. Browse thorough your search result and pick deb packages for i386/amd64 (as per your machine).

Hope this will help you as well.

regards,
