You should run the same version of Pycurl as Curl - generally the
release are in sync with one another. Ie: curl-7.12 and pycurl 7.12. In
order to upgrade pycurl, you will need to download the latest pycurl
tarball:

http://pycurl.sourceforge.net/download/pycurl-7.12.tar.gz

Once downloaded, you should untar that file. Run:

python setup.py install in the directory that was expanded. This will
install pycurl.

However - if you compiled curl by hand, and did not set --prefix=/usr,
the pycurl installation will not work properly, as it will be unable to
find the curl libraries to link against.
