The version of curl
and libcurl
here provides libcurl.so.4
, whereas
many ancient distributions included a version of curl
that provides
libcurl.so.3
or libcurl.so.2
.
This means that installing the curl
and libcurl
packages from this repository can break a
lot of dependencies for applications linked against the older libcurl
. This
problem can be avoided by also installing the
libcurl7155
(for libcurl.so.3
) and/or
libcurl7112
(for libcurl.so.2
) packages,
for backwards compatibility, e.g.:
rpm -Uvh libcurl7155-7.15.5-17.cf.fc19.x86_64.rpm curl-8.0.1-2.0.cf.fc19.x86_64.rpm libcurl-8.0.1-2.0.cf.fc19.x86_64.rpm
libcurl
is now linked against various libraries such as c-ares
, libidn
and libssh2
.
If your distribution does not supply these libraries, you can get RPMs from the
libraries directory.
Additionally, builds for recent Fedora releases and RHEL are linked against libnghttp2
.
This library is included in Fedora and can be obtained from the
EPEL Repository for RHEL.
If you have any queries or problems with these RPMs, please contact the packager, Paul Howarth <paul@city-fan.org> directly.
