Thanks Tim.

Which is actually:

typedef size_t (*curl_write_callback)(char *buffer,
                                      size_t size,
                                      size_t nitems,
                                      void *outstream);

as per curl.h and is the same as the example code:

https://curl.se/libcurl/c/getinmemory.html

so if I switch to:


static curl_write_callback curl_to_jansson_to_version(void *buffer, size_t size,
                                    size_t nmemb, json_t *json)
{


I get:

Incompatible integer to pointer conversion returning 'unsigned long'
from a function with result type 'curl_write_callback' (aka 'unsigned
long (*)(char *, unsigned long, unsigned long, void *)')

error: returning ‘size_t’ {aka ‘long unsigned int’} from a function
with return type ‘curl_write_callback’ {aka ‘long unsigned int
(*)(char *, long unsigned int, long unsigned int, void *)’} makes
pointer from integer without a cast [-Werror=int-conversion]
   43 | return size * nmemb;
      | ~~~~~^~~~~~~


so I'd need to cast that.
