I ended up installing the following to get it to work:

sudo apt-get install build-essential libncurses5 libncurses5-dev

installing libncurses5 and -dev did not fix the issue when trying to debug on the BBB
Could not determine GDB version using command: /home/amf/devel/bbb-toolchain/gcc-linaro-7.5.0-2019.12-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gdb --version
/home/amf/devel/bbb-toolchain/gcc-linaro-7.5.0-2019.12-x86_64_arm-linux-gnueabihf/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf-gdb: error while loading shared libraries: libncurses.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I still need symlink for libncuses.so.6 to .so.5, also for libtinfo.so.5

whereis libncurses.so.5
libncurses.so: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libncurses.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libncurses.so.6
This is what I get, so it does not look like apt install of libncurses5 and -dev install .so.5 version
