When I went over the documentation, I had the issue of missing Libcurl when trying to build from cmake. According to the online documentation, Ubuntu doesn't have a direct libcurl-dev package, and using libcurl4-openssl-dev fixes the issue.
additional post about Ubuntu 22.04 missing libcurl
What
I'm adding a warning that if libcurl is missing, here's the package if needed. It is also possible to just add the package to the requirements if the repo owner deems it necessary.
Why
It helps users when building, not having to research why libcurl is missing a package for CMake.
