Homebrew Question Devkitpro error: cannot find -lcurl

[OkazakiTheOtaku]

Hi, when trying to compile some homebrew projects, devkitpro tells me that it cannot find -lcurl. More specifically, the error is:
/opt/devkitpro/devkitA64/bin/../lib/gcc/aarch64-none-elf/8.1.0/../../../../aarch64-none-elf/bin/ld: cannot find -lcurl

Am I missing a dependency? What can I do to fix this?
I'm using DevKitPro on macOS, if that makes a difference.

Am I missing a dependency?

Yep, just install over pacman

pacman -S switch-curl

btw Pacman always fails on Mac OS X Sierra for me it installs until the end saying "the installation has failed, how would I debug an error from a pkg?

 

[rock88]

I'm on High Sierra, all ok. Maybe u should install with sudo?

 

[chrisrlink]

it kind of does as it asks for my password (opening it via double clicking the pkg) I get this using the sudo installer command with -allowUntrusted and -verbose

Thanks! Working perfectly for me on High Sierra. I have to use dkp-pacman

You should do some research.

You should do some research.

Thanks for the helpful reply. Unfortunately, someone answered my question over 10 days ago so maybe you should have read the thread.

I did, maybe you shouldn't assume
