new 3.0.2 curl dependency - build failure on Centos 5.3

Post by vbtroy »

I had previously built the OSE version of Vbox 2.2.2 on my Centos 5.3 64-bit box, but now with version 3.0.2 I am getting a curl-related build error. I have curl and curl-devel 7.15.5 on the system. Is there a different version of curl needed to resolve this error?

unfortunately i am stuck with your same problem, have you found a workaround yet?

i would really like to get vbox OSE working on my centos 5 install otherwise i will probably have to abandon centos for what i need it for.

Hi

I had this problem when I tried to build VirtualBox OSE with an old version of libcurl that I downloaded by accident. In that version the CURLE_REMOTE_FILE_NOT_FOUND constant simply was not implemented. When I instead used the latest version of libcurl everything worked. I do not know exactly which version VB really requires, but it does not seem to check for it when configuring.

Regards

Tobias
