Do you link with shared version of libcurl and nghttp2? If so, removing the
libs should prevent your application from even starting since it can't link
the libraries at run-time.

If you linked statically, then removing "the linked library objects" will not
have any effect since they're already linked with your application.

At the end of curl's configure run it displays a summary of the build options
and what features it will enable in the build etc. That should say that http2
is enabled. You can also use curl_version_info() [1] in your application to
figure out exactly what your built libcurl supports. The 'features' bitmask
has the CURL_VERSION_HTTP2 bit set when HTTP/2 support is present.

I would also recommend using CURLOPT_VERBOSE set to 1L when debugging your
application so that you'll more details and information from libcurl about its
doings.
