It's not an R package, it's a library that you'll need on your system.
package ?libcurl? is not available (for R version 3.2.0) Or if on Terminal I run *sudo apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev* Package libcurl4-openssl-dev is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
That sounds like a problem you'll need to ask about on an Ubuntu forum, not R-help. Once you get the library installed so that the curl-config command works for you (outside of R), you should be able to install the RCurl package in R. Duncan Murdoch

I have been *trying to install some add-on packages* (that weren't

getting repeated error messages. For example, *I tried
installing swirl*.
Here's my output. The problem areas are highlighted in yellow.
Any solution?
The error message looks pretty clear: the installer couldn't find
curl-config. Just install whatever package is necessary to get
libcurl, and make sure curl-config is on your path, and you should
get past that error, and on to the next one.
