Answer 1

if you are on linux with apt-get:

lnx#> apt-get search pycurl

To install:

lnx#> sudo apt-get install python-pycurl

if on linux with yum:

lnx#> yum search pycurl  
I get this on my comp:  
python-pycurl.x86_64 : A Python interface to libcurl

To install i've did:

lnx#> sudo yum install python-pycurl

Another alternative, is to use easy_install:

yum, or apt-get, install setuptools.
