[Pkg-octave-devel] Bug#637787: FTBFS: fatal error: curl/types.h: No such file or directory

[Aurelien Jarno]

Package: octave3.2
Version: 3.2.4-10
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)

Hi,

octave3.2 currently FTBFS on sid, as it tries to include curl/types.h
which has been removed (see bug#636457):
