[gdal-dev] error when opening wcs descriptor

[Even Rouault]

Godofredo,

This is very surprising. wms and wcs drivers are only compiled if libcurl is 
available.

Assuming your platform is Linux :
My guess is that you have configured a first time without libcurl support, 
compiled, observed that libcurl support was missing, reconfigured with 
libcurl support and compiled again... without cleaning. But the second 
compilation did not recompile the necessary file(s), in that instance 
port/cpl_http.cpp. If you just 'touch' it and compile, this should work. But 
as a rule of thumb, the safest way is to make clean after running again 
configure.

Best regards,

Even
