I was trying to build this on Linux Mint 18 and I think I had installed all of the required dependencies, but it gives me several messages about various libcurl methods not being defined. I tried looking this problem up and apparently it has to do with libcurl not being linked in C++, but I have no idea how to fix that. Here's the messages that show up when I try to do 'make' again after doing that command the first time.

Let me know if you need other files to figure out what's going on.
Looks like it is also unable to link some Glib methods.
What version of g++, libcurl, and glibmm do you have installed?
Are you sure you have the development versions of libcurl and glibmm installed?
