The mpg123 warning is leftover from hmp3; mpg123 is a media player hmp3 needs to actually play the audio files. I hadn't noticed it. Obviously it has no relevance to a curses binding, so I've edited that out and uploaded a small version bump.

Dunno. If Cabal usually works for you, but just no with nanocurses, my guess would be perhaps the mpg123 check is causing the configure script to bail out?
