Git 1.7.5.4 installation issue on Ubuntu 11.04

[John1111]

When issuing the make command I get the following:

/bin/sh: curl-config: not found
CC daemon.o
In file included from cache.h:4:0,
from daemon.c:1:
git-compat-util.h:168:25: fatal error: openssl/ssl.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [daemon.o] Error 1


If anyone could point me in the right direction, that would be great!

I was having this problem when trying to install the download from the website. I just tried using apt-get install and that worked, so this is no longer a problem for me, but since I don't know why exactly the download from the website didn't work, I'll leave the post for now.

I had this problem on Ocelot and didn't want to install from apt-get because the version from http://code.google.com/p/git-core/downloads/list is a bit newer.

After fiddling around a bit installing libcurl fixed the problem


sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev

Hope it helps somebody else out!
