Re: Missing /usr/lib/libcurl.la in libcurl-devel-7.27.0-1

When I revert to libcurl-devel-7.24.0-3, the file is included in the package.

Unless I am missing, this looks like a packaging error?

it could a upstream decision. There are several discussion about the not need of *.la files

As the package provide /usr/lib/libcurl.dll.a

it is possible to link anyway, you need just to configure
again the package to detect the change.


Kind regards,
