Can't Install Curb - Having problems with native extensions.

I'm trying to install the curb gem on my Debian machine but I'm having a hard time building the gem with native extensions. I'm using RVM.

Just a list of things I'm using:

• debian
• bundler
• rvm
• ruby-1.9.2-p180
• curb

I'm told I have to install the following packages and I've done so:

sudo apt-get install libcurl3 libcurl3-gnutls libcurl4-openssl-dev

When I go ahead and do as such:

gem install curb

Building native extensions.  This could take a while...
ERROR:  Error installing curb:

I don't any way around this, any ideas?

Thanks buds.

On a Debian Squeeze, I've managed to install curb with libcurl4-openssl-dev installed before.

It may also work with libcurl4-gnutls-dev, but I've no tested.

You probably need to install curl-devel package.

yum install curl-devel

openssl used to work for me, but now libcurl4-gnutls-dev is all that works for me...
