So apparently my "can't find -lcurl" was because I didn't have a non-versioned libcurl.so available as it went away when I created one

Yes, it's not particularly trivial to use libcurl currently, but thankfully all the libcurl complications will be gone in about 6 weeks with 2.069.0.

Yes, the -dev packages come with unversioned symlinks and a pkg-config file (try `pkg-config --libs libcurl`).
