New description:
Following the openssl setup curl doesn't find the certificates:
checking default CA cert bundle/path... no
It looks like this can be worked around a number of ways:
--with-ca-bundle=/etc/ssl/ca-bundle.crt, --with-ca-path=/etc/ssl/certs, or
a link /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt -> ../ca-bundle.crt
The configure results look good from any of the above, but I don't know
which is most appropriate.

Comment(by a...@…):
I'm getting the same with Trent, even with 7.20.0.
The proper way to fix this is to use "--with-ca-bundle=/etc/ssl/ca-
bundle.crt".
Dj we can't use "--with-ca-path=/etc/ssl/certs", because it doesn't work
when linking curl with gnutls, see:
{{{
as_fn_error "--with-ca-path only works with openSSL" "$LINENO" 5
}}}
We can also (probably) fix this, with a sed the loop in the configure
script, where it searches for certs.
Anyway, it doesn't look an important error, because it can by-passed:
- while using the curl utility in runtime, with a number of command line
options
- while using libcurl bindings by setting for example the CURLOPT_CAINFO
or the CURLOPT_CAPATH options
