The motivation is as following: Curl depends on gnutls and gnutls depends on gmp, but the LICENSE of gmp is LGPLv3. If the users do not want to use the LGPLv3 recipes(the rpm of gmp is not be installed), there will be an error when using https. Such as: ---------------- # curl -k https://192.168.246.1 curl: error while loading shared libraries: libgmp.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory ---------------- But after changing gnutls to ssl in PACKAGECONFIG, there will be no errors. > > > PACKAGECONFIG_class-native = "ipv6 ssl zlib" > > PACKAGECONFIG_class-nativesdk = "ipv6 ssl zlib" > > > @@ -36,6 +36,7 @@ EXTRA_OECONF = "--without-libidn \ > > --disable-ldap \ > > --disable-ldaps \ > > > > --with-ca-bundle=${sysconfdir}/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt \ > > + --with-libssh2 \ > > NACK. > > We have a PACKAGECONFIG för libssh2, which defaults to off.

My goal is to let sftp supported by curl, by adding libssh2 in PACKAGECONFIG. But libssh2 is not in OE-core by default. And I think there may be someone else want to use libssh2. So how about moving libssh2 recipe from Meta-oe to OE-core? :) Thank you very much.
