Error building transmission-daemon with cmake command?

Question

ubuntu

Good day to all.
I'm trying to build the latest version of transmission-daemon on Ubuntu Server 16.04, the sequence of commands executed is:

$ git clone https://github.com/transmission/transmission Transmission
$ cd Transmission
$ git submodule update --init
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..

When running the latter, an error occurs:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.5/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:148 (message):
  Could NOT find CURL (missing: CURL_LIBRARY CURL_INCLUDE_DIR) (Required is
  at least version "7.15.4")
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/share/cmake-3.5/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:388 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE)
  /usr/share/cmake-3.5/Modules/FindCURL.cmake:61 (FIND_PACKAGE_HANDLE_STANDARD_ARGS)
  CMakeLists.txt:136 (find_package)


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

What is the error and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance
