_curses.error: must call (at least) setupterm() first

I can't understand why I can't use it. Help me please

What caused the traceback? Some code? Installing it? Something else? — doctorlove, Nov 21 '16 at 12:38
`import pwn` this part cause error. Installing was finished successfully — Damotorie, Nov 21 '16 at 12:44

You must set the following environment variables as indicated here

export TERM=linux export TERMINFO=/etc/terminfo

Setupterm could not find terminal, in Python program using curses
