ops, my mistake. The *already* compiled DEB packages don't require de
-dev packages, of course, but just the runtime libraries (libcurl3 or
libcurl3-gnutls).

Some questions:

- If the deb package is compiled with libcurl4-openssl-dev, could the
deb package itself require libcurl3-gnutls instead of libcurl3? Would
it work?

- If there any licence issue if a DEB package requires libcurl3 (OpenSSL)?

- If there any licence issue if an *official* DEB package is compiled
with libcurl4-openssl-dev instead of libcurl4-gnutls-dev?
