compilation error curl about hcxtools HOT 5 CLOSED

No problem.
KALI is designed to be used by penetration testers and not for coders or user who compile code.
So only a few development packages (dev) are included and you must(!) install the other ones by yourself. That is the philosophy of KALI (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, ... - the list is long) and just another good reason why I use and recommend Arch Linux.

from hcxtools.

You don't need libcurl3, but you need the dev files to compile hcxtools.
From README.md:
To install requirements on Kali use the following 'apt-get install libcurl4-openssl-dev libssl-dev zlib1g-dev'

See KALI package tracker:
https://pkg.kali.org/pkg/curl

Also explained for example here:
#67

BTW:
Closed this issue, because it isn't related to hcxtools.
But you can still ask questions here or in official KALI forum (better for KALI related questions, because I don't use KALI):

@njscorpion did you get it to work?

I have a similar error on Kali. hcxtools can’t find curl. Curl works fine. So trying to install the libcurl4-OpenSSL-dev you get a message that it requires an old (7.58) version of libcurl4 that would breal every other major app in Kali...

That is an issue of KALI and you should ask there.
