Description of problem: I tried to rebuild the php-4.3.8 on a old RHL7.3 box (don't ask). I found that curl-devel should be in the BuildRequires.
$ grep curl php.spec BuildRequires: bzip2-devel, curl-devel >= 7.9, db4-devel, expat-devel ... what am I missing?
Even http://updates.redhat.com/7.3/en/os/SRPMS/php-4.1.2-7.3.6.src.rpm has curl-devel as build requirement: # grep curl php.spec BuildRequires: curl-devel #
