This part I take back. I see now that in R's configure it really does refuse to proceed if it doesn't find the right libcurl with SSL support. It's not possible to disable since it's now the default download method. This is silly though, since other download methods still work. It should be possible to disable the requirement at configure time and fallback to a different default. It's a shame we require a patch for this for now but I can help push for an upstream fix to this if need be, because I think it's fairly silly. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
