Dear mentors,

i have a program that i want to compile, but i miss the file 
'curl-config' and so the process stops with an error.

My questions is. How can i find the package the provides the above file 
(it can be more than one)?

i am currently searching on google for such cases, but i was wandering 
whether there is a better way.

Mainly i want to provide a suggestion when such failures occur. For 
instance in this case i could say that possible candidate packages for 
this file are x,y,z...

many thanks
