Subject: curl-config does not work on debian/stretch
Automatic configuration fails on debian/stretch systems, though libcurl4-gnutls-dev is installed: ... Output from '/opt/perl-5.25.11/bin/perl5.25.11 Makefile.PL INSTALLDIRS=site': Locating required external dependency bin:curl-config... found at /usr/bin/curl-config. The version is libcurl 7.52.1 Cannot find curl.h - cannot build constants files - see Makefile.PL at Makefile.PL line 96. ... Problem seems to be that curl-config does not work correctly: $ curl-config --cflags (no output) However, pkg-config works fine: $ pkg-config --cflags libcurl -I/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu I filed a bug report at debian, but maybe you want to switch to use pkg-config instead of curl-config on such systems?

Patch (preferring the usage of pkg-config over curl-config) is now available at: http://cpan.cpantesters.org/authors/id/S/SR/SREZIC/patches/WWW-Curl-4.17-RT120736.patch Note that still the patch found in RT #117793 is additionally needed for a successful build on debian/stretch.

Same problem with debian/buster (current testing).
