Hi,

# yum clean all

Nothing to do


Thanks!
 
curl is managed in custombuild, so you do:

Code:
cd /usr/local/directadmin/custombuild
./build update
./build curl
./build php n

Not any longer!! cURL version has regressed 10 years.

Bringing this question back to the life.

Is there any way to upgrade cURL on Centos 7 ?
 
No answers on david's question 2,5 years ago? I'm facing the same problem.
This is my current Curl version:
Code:
# curl -V
curl 7.29.0 (x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.29.0 NSS/3.53.1 zlib/1.2.7 libidn/1.28 libssh2/1.8.0
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher http https imap imaps ldap ldaps pop3 pop3s rtsp scp sftp smtp smtps telnet tftp
Features: AsynchDNS GSS-Negotiate IDN IPv6 Largefile NTLM NTLM_WB SSL libz unix-sockets

CentOS 7 doesn't have a newer version available!

How to upgrade Curl to a recent version on CentOS 7?
 
Was there some special reason to remove curl from build (compiling it from source) and to use OS version?
