Summary:                    curl does not seem to work when cross-compiling
Description: 
I am trying to get curl available under astlinux - but there seems to be a
problem when cross-compiling curl_lib. 

the error is :

[LD] func_curl.o -> func_curl.so
/usr/src/astlinux/build_i586/staging_dir/bin-ccache/../lib/gcc/i586-linux-uclibc/4.1.2/../../../../i586-linux-uclibc/bin/ld:
cannot find -lcurl
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [func_curl.so] Error 1

Actually, curl-config works as expected.  The path to the libraries must be
explicitly passed to the compiler as curl-config simply reports the
library, but not the path.  Simple fix and we have this working. 

./build_i586/root/usr/bin/curl-config --cflags
-I/home/dhartman/astlinux/trunk/build_i586/staging_dir/include
(which is correct)

./build_i586/root/usr/bin/curl-config --libs
-lcurl

(which is also correct, but meaningless unless the compiler knows to look
in /home/dhartman/astlinux/trunk/build_i586/usr/lib for libcurl)

Please consider this closed.
