Professor, You will probably need to include more information. For example: Are you building 'docs' after a build of 'gretl'?

The error message got after I do ./configure --enable-build-doc were: Please install libcurl and then reconfigure gretl. libcurl is available from http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/ I noticed that the gretl changelog mentioned that " Switch to using libcurl for HTTP transaction support..." I checked my ubuntu and found there were libcurl3 installed. I also went to " http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/ " to download and install "curl_7.19.7-1ubuntu1.1_amd64.deb." I still got the same error messages.... ... checking for FFTW... yes checking for CURL... no checking for GLIB... yes checking for GTK... yes It seems that curl is not found. Is there required versions for curl? Or anything I am doing wrong? Please help and thanks.
