Cannot find curl-config in Ubuntu 13.04
I am installing package RCurl in R and getting an error
checking for curl-config… no
Cannot find curl-config
ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘RCurl’
I have tried to install libcurl on Ubuntu, but it doesn’t solve my problem have some dependecies
sudo apt-get install libcurl4-gnutls-dev
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
libcurl4-gnutls-dev: Depends: libcurl3-gnutls (= 7. 29. 0-1ubuntu3. 1) but 7. 2 is to be installed
Depends: libldap2-dev but it is not going to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
locate curl config gives me nothing:
locate curl-config
curl-config
The program ‘curl-config’ can be found in the following packages:
* libcurl4-gnutls-dev
* libcurl4-nss-dev
* libcurl4-openssl-dev
I went through some of the solution RCurl but it is working. Can you suggest or help in this direction. Thank you so much.
Edit
when i tried to install(Curl) from Ubuntu Software center got the same erroe message
Package dependencies cannot be resolved
