Hi,
I'm writing a simple script for a client of mine using the libcurl library.
There seems to be a problem with the CURLOPT_ENCODING option when the
content is compressed with zlib (Content-Encoding: deflate) curl will return
"Error while processing content unencoding: incorrect header check".

Any help will be appreciated.

I'm using libcurl with the following setup
#curl -V
curl 7.15.0 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.15.0 OpenSSL/0.9.7a zlib/1.2.3
Protocols: tftp ftp gopher telnet dict ldap http file https ftps
Features: Largefile NTLM SSL libz

Here is a sample session from curl, and if you need additional info please
let me know.
