Just the other day I had a similar problem (compiling vibenews,
ld complained of missing -levent and -lssl), which I managed to
solve simply by installing the development versions of the
libraries (i.e. libevent-dev and libssl-dev). Maybe if you
install libcurl-dev you will have the same luck I had. (But
hopefully someone will give a more enlightened reply.)
Synaptic gave me a choice of 3 libcurl*
libcurl4-nss-dev (NSS flavour)
libcurl4-gnutls-dev (GnuTLS flavour)
libcurl4-openssl-dev (OpenSSL flavour)
Confusing that there are 3 choices.
I downloaded the OpenSSL one and the "can't find lcurl" has gone
away. But I am now getting linking errors with regard to curl
certain curl functions not being found.
