libcurl 3 on Debian 10?

#1 Post by kerryhall »

I have a plugin for a daw that I've been trying for the past several months to get working.

Unfortunately the version of libc was too old, so I was told I needed to upgrade to Debian 10.

I did this, and in addition I tested everything in a vm and confirmed it worked.

I just did a fresh install of Debian 10 on my laptop, but now when I go to test the plugin, I get an error saying I need libcurl3.

First:
How do I install libcurl3 on Debian 10?

Second:
I tested this roughly a few weeks ago with the *exact* same version of the plugin and Debian 10. Was libcurl3 removed in the past few weeks?

This is maddening, I'm stuck in dependency hell right now.

So try the -dev package.

@H_o_a_S

So why does Aptitude show libcurl3-dev when Synaptic doesn't and apt installs libcurl4?

Because libcurl3-dev is a virtual package that has libcurl4-openssl-dev as a dependency. Hopefully that will provide the files the OP needs.

I tried installing that package, but unfortunately no luck, same issue.

In fact, I get the error saying I need libcurl3 when I just do "ldd myplugin.so".

Perhaps there is a way I can download libcurl3 somehow, just the so file, put it in my home dir, then somehow tell ldd to tell "myplugin.so" to use the downloaded version of libcurl3?

Is this possible? If so, how would I go about it?

Thank you!

Search the interweb for 'LD_PRELOAD'.
