Thank you very much for your answer.

The last version of cURL available in the software manager of OpenSUSE is
curl-7.15.5-23 and this is the version installed now. The package manager of
OpenSUSE does not show me the latest version of cURL since this package is
not included in the "packages respositories" I'm using...
If somebody knows a package respository for OpenSUSE 10.2 i586 which includes
the latest versions of cURL packages, I would be very happy to know it and
add it to my list of respositories, in order to install this package with the
OpenSUSE's Package Manager...

By "download page", I was talking about the download page on the cURL official
website : http://curl.haxx.se/download.html...

Thank you once more :-)
