That's a linker error telling you that the linker can't find libcurl, which
means that you haven't installed curl or that it's not installed somewhere
where the linker looks. Given that curl is something that should normally be
installed on a Linux box and would be installed by the system's package
manager, my guess is that you don't have curl installed - or that if you do,
you don't have the devel package installed (if your distro has separate devel
packages).
