Thanks very much for your prompt answer Prof Cottrell.
I can see in the repo 3 packages named libcurl4-gnuts-dev,
libcurl4-nss-dev and libcurl4-openssl-dev
Is it possible that one of these is the required package? I don't want
to break something.

Debian has a libcurl-dev virtual package, so I guess Mint ought to have
something similar.

--without-gnome has gone now since we don't offer any gnome-specific
support; we supply xdg support instead (generic modern Linux desktop
stuff).
Nothing else should be tricky. But you probably want to add
--enable-openmp to the configure flags if you have a multi-core machine.
