Yes, see http://curl.haxx.se/docs/features.html and http://curl.haxx.se/docs/install.html says: curl can be built to use a whole range of libraries to provide various useful services, and configure will try to auto-detect a decent default. But if you want to alter it, you can select how to deal with each individual library. To build with GnuTLS support instead of OpenSSL for SSL/TLS, note that you need to use both --without-ssl and --with-gnutls. To build with yassl support instead of OpenSSL or GnuTLS, you must build yassl with its OpenSSL emulation enabled and point to that directory root with configure --with-ssl. To build with NSS support instead of OpenSSL for SSL/TLS, note that you need to use both --without-ssl and --with-nss. -- Michael Wood <[email protected]>
