After trying to configure libgcal it complains that libcurl is not
installed, but it is installed, does it need a specific version?

Dear friend

I'm assuming that you are running Ubuntu (judging by the icon that you
use as avatar).
;-)

You need the development files to compile libgcal:

- libcurl4-openssl-dev
- libxml2-dev

at very least. If you wish to compile and run the unit tests, it will
be required too:
- check
- lcov

I already successfully tested libgcal on the following platforms:
Ubuntu 7.10/8.04 (x86-32 and x86-64), Opensuse 11.0, Mac OSX Leopard
(10.5.4).

Any problem, feel free to contact me.


Best regards

My development machine is actually Mac OSX Leopard. Do you have
specific instructions for Mac?

Friend

Just install the library requirements (libcurl and libxml2), setting
environment variables PKG_CONFIG_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to their
locations before running 'configure'. Then, its just 'make' and 'make
install' (thanks to autotools magic!).

You can use fink to install the dependency libraries (or just download
the tarballs and compile the source code).

Best regards

ps: I also suggest you to use the git repository version of libgcal,
it has some new functionalities, like raw XML mode (i.e. using only
XML instead of gcal_event/gcal_contact types) and bug fixes. I'm
planning to do a libgcal 0.8 release in the next month.
