Public bug reported: This appears to have been fixed in 8.10 and newer, but since 8.0.4 is an LTS release, I'm posting this bug. The package libcurl3 should depend on ca-certificates being installed. However, the libcurl3 package in 8.0.4 doesn't list ca-certificates as a dependancy. It is listed as a dependancy in 8.10.
Below is the output of 'aptitude show libcurl3' on Ubuntu 8.10: Package: libcurl3 State: installed Automatically installed: yes Version: 7.18.2-1ubuntu4.3 Priority: optional Section: libs Maintainer: Ubuntu Core Developers <[email protected]> Uncompressed Size: 434k Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), libcomerr2 (>= 1.01), libidn11 (>= 0.5.18), libkrb53 (>= 1.6.dfsg.2), libldap-2.4-2 (>= 2.4.7), libssl0.9.8 (>= 0.9.8f-5), zlib1g (>= 1:1.1.4), ca-certificates Conflicts: libcurl4 Replaces: libcurl2 (< 1:7.11.2-2), libcurl4 Description: Multi-protocol file transfer library (OpenSSL) libcurl is designed to be a solid, usable, reliable and portable multi-protocol file transfer library.
