I get this error when I try to build pycurl-7.19.0 on Snow Leopard (OS X
10.6.1):

The problem seems to be that setup.py uses "curl-config --static-libs",
and that yields

/usr/lib/libcurl.a -lssl -lcrypto -Wl,-weak-lldap -dynamic -Os -pipe -g0
-Wno-system-headers -Wl,-search_paths_first -Wl,-weak-lgssapi_krb5
-Wl,-weak-lkrb5 -Wl,-weak-lk5crypto -Wl,-weak-lcom_err -Wl,-weak-lresolv
-lssl -lcrypto -lz -lz

which /usr/lib/libcurl.a is a non-existent library. This is Xcode 3.2.

What's the workaround?

Bill
