Subject: Re: ANNOUNCE: curl and libcurl 7.22.0

Daniel,
Ok. I tracked it down to m4/curl-openssl.m4, the OPEN_SSL_VERSION
(0x1000005fL) when you put the x in front of it turns out to have a
length of 12 now instead of 11, so copy pasting the x11) case to an
x12) should do the trick. I guess the the third line needed the -8,
but it might still be -7, not really sure what the does.
It appears the change in openssl occurred 2011-Jan-03 with CVS commit
1.48.2.59 of openssl/crypto/opensslv.h, that seems to be where the
length went from 10 to 11.
Attached is an example patch, feel free to adjust as needed. Again I
not sure of the significance of the cut -c 8 in line 10 of the patch.

I'll probably update curl to 7.22.0 in Haiku sometime this week. It's
available to install from the command line in Haiku using
"installoptionalpackage curl", but may already be installed if the
Haiku web browser "WebPositive" is installed, as that uses curl last I
knew.
