Im trying to compile git on debian etch and get a problem with
curl-config not found.
I gather curl-config is in a number of debian dev packages.

Can someone tell me which which package?

```

$ dpkg -S /usr/bin/curl-config
libcurl4-openssl-dev: /usr/bin/curl-config

(or you can opt to get the gnutls version if you prefer that)

Ja Thats what I observed that libcurl-openssl-dev, libcurl-gnutls-dev
both seem to supply curl-config. So are both interchangeable?
