Issue ID: 14960
Summary: libcurl linking issues on linux
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86_64
OS: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1

I installed fresh Fedora 22, than dmd-2.068 from the download page for Fedora.
When building for example dub, there is a problem with libcurl linking.
I have libcurl-devel installed, but noticed that there is just:
/lib64/libcurl.so.4 -> libcurl.so.4.3.0
/lib64/libcurl.so.4.3.0
So I fixed it with:
ln -s libcurl.so.4 libcurl.so
This is definitelly not a great user experience for newcomers.
Fedora package should depend on the libcurl-devel if its needed and linking
should be handled to work out of the box ideally.
Similar problem discussed here for Ubuntu:
