*<code>libncursesw5-dev</code>.
===Q: Is it possible to resize the virtual disk?===
Yes, but you need to convert the image to VDI format first. For example, see [https://www.jamescoyle.net/how-to/2000-convert-virtual-disk-image-vmware-vmdk-to-virtualbox-vdi this page].
Once you have the VDI file, follow the procedure described [https://www.howtogeek.com/124622/how-to-enlarge-a-virtual-machines-disk-in-virtualbox-or-vmware/ here].
=== Q: I get an OpenSSL error when accessing resources over TLS, e.g. download using wget on https. How to fix this? ===
This errors is caused when an old version of OpenSSL, e.g. like the one present on an non-updated Ubuntu 12.04, is used to access resources using TLS, e.g.:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
dvdk@dvdkVM:~$ wget https://github.com/openssl/openssl/archive/master.zip
--2018-11-15 22:59:47-- https://github.com/openssl/openssl/archive/master.zip

OpenSSL: error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
Unable to establish SSL connection.
</syntaxhighlight>To fix this user just have to updates OpenSSL and related libraries, using the following commands:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install libssl-dev curl wget openssl
</syntaxhighlight>This is the result:<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
