I think that's a long standing limitation installing test packages - test versions of dependencies are not handled automatically by setup - you also have to manually choose the test versions of any related packages you are installing. I normally just pick the root of any package I want to test e.g. ncurses and select the same test versions of all binaries to install to avoid these issues. -- Take care.
