Comment 4 for bug 260958

Its really a pity having to keep this delta for something that is so blatantly wrong.
We also reported this:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=454497

The point is, if libcurl4-gnutls-dev is needed as a build-depends, we should not rely on it being dragged in by any other package (which may always change for their own reasons).
I would therefore say, lets ack it this time, but please reopen the bug in Debian, this is really something they ought to fix.
