Cannot install experimental libdap .deb package from Hyrax 1.11 release (Ubuntu 14.04)

I downloaded libdap_3.14.0-1_x86_64.deb from OPeNDAP's experimental debian package index, but ran into a dependency issue when trying to install it with gdebi. Apparently it requires the package libcurl, which is not available in the default repos for Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr).
There is, however, a package named libcurl3 available for Trusty Tahr; maybe the dependency could be changed to this in the published .deb?
Below is my output showing the failed installation:
~$ sudo gdebi libdap_3.14.0-1_x86_64.deb

I'm closing this - this was an experiment to see if we could build deb packages from our RPMs. I think libdap and BES are too complex for this and we should seek a different solution like finding someone who can configure a native build for us. We might be able to integrate that into our Travis CI configuration.
