Subject: How to force configure script to use curl ?

Hi,
I was trying to build Git yesterday on a Ubuntu 14 machine that was missing the package "libcurl4-gnutls-dev" necessary to build the http(s) remote helper [1].
Doing just
./configure
make
built Git without support for the http remote helper, as expected.
However, doing
./configure --with-curl
make
did the same; it did not result in an error saying that the curl headers could not be found (which I expected).
Is there a way to force the configure script to error out if it does not find curl (or any one of the optional dependencies that I happen to need for my build?)
Thanks,
Philippe.
[1] this is one of the package suggested by the progit book :
