There it is-- -lidn. But for some reason it's not being picked up.

What do you mean "Then set"?

Your program must be linked with the arguments that "curl-config
--static-libs" provides. So this line should look like this instead:

g++ -static *.cpp -o scs_H264 -pthread -lcurl `curl-config --static-libs`

But since you have -static in there, you have to make sure that there are
static versions of all dependent libraries available. And you'll have
to do the `curl-config --static-libs` trick (or equivalent) with all
those dependent libraries, including libcurl's, and all THEIR dependent
libraries as well. `curl-config --static-libs` on its own is designed to
link apps with a static libcurl but dynamic everything else.

This will be a lot easier if you disable all the protocols you don't need
when you build libcurl, to reduce those dependencies. If you don't need
IDNA, SSL, LDAP and ZLIB support, then disable them and save yourself
some hassle.
