configure: error: cannot find curl-config. Is libcurl installed?
curl-config should be in /usr/bin (it is provided by the BSD.pkg)
Thanks Daniel. That's improved things a lot. I symlinked the MacPorts curl and curl-config in /usr/bin and got a bit further.
ick.
Your system is messed up if there's no apple-provided curl-config in / usr/bin - you should fix that instead of symlinking things around
The macports configure script (and build system) tries to avoid depending on things that macports installs (because if you uninstall macports curl later but macports depends on curl, how will you fix it?).
This is a good argument for packages. is there any plan to build packages at various milestones, like at release time? Maybe not all ports, but the key ones (curl, gettest, expat. libiconv, etc.). -- Paul Beard / www.paulbeard.org/ <paulbeard@gmail.com/paulbeard@mac.com>
