ALT Linux Bugzilla – #18779

$ pkg-config libcurl --libs
-lcurl  
$ pkg-config libcurl --libs --static
-lcurl -lcares -lidn -lrt -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lz  

$ curl-config --libs
-lcurl -lcares -lidn -lssl -lcrypto -lrt -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lz
$ curl-config --static-libs
/usr/lib64/libcurl.a -lcares -lidn -lssl -lcrypto -lrt -lssl -lcrypto -ldl -lz

Build of 25+ packages is broken because of this inconsistency.

I think curl-config should be changed to trivial wrapper around "pkg-config libcurl".  Other distros does exactly that.
