Subject: libcurl3-dev: linking fails when using `curl-config --libs` flags.

Date: Sun, 13 Mar 2005 14:22:06 -0500

Package: libcurl3-dev
Version: 7.13.1-1
Severity: normal

For some reason (which I haven't tracked down), the latest libcurl3-dev has
broken the curl behavior.  Below is the error message I get.  A brief
googling suggests that 'tld_strerror' and 'idna_strerror' ought to be in
libidn.  Might it be that libcurl is compiled with an ABI-incompatible
version of libidn11-dev?

this is a known issue of libidn, please see bug #299319.

yes, installing libidn11 from unstable (0.5.13-1.0) should do the trick.
you should be able to take directly the binary package from unstable
without recompilation.

alternatively you may also install old libcurl3 7.13.0-2 found at
http://snapshot.debian.net/archive/2005/02/25/debian/pool/main/c/curl/
