How to install mosh on oracle linux

Question

I wanted to install mosh on oracle linux, but I was faced with the fact that such a package does not exist.

$ sudo yum install mosh Last metadata expiration check: 3:12:40 ago on Wed 15 Feb 2023 01:05:56 PM GMT. No match for argument: mosh Error: Unable to find a match: mosh 

I tried to build mosh from the source code, but that didn't work either.

$ git clone https://github.com/mobile-shell/mosh $ cd mosh $ ./autogen.sh ./autogen.sh: line 3: exec: autoreconf: not found 

After that, I tried to install the dependencies, and I was faced with the fact that not all dependencies can be installed, for example ncurses(libncurses5-dev)

Can I install mosh on oracle linux and how to do it?
