Local Packages

  • Updated curl to 7.22.0:

    • Added CURLOPT_GSSAPI_DELEGATION

    • Added support for NTLM delegation to Samba's winbind daemon helper ntlm_auth

    • Display notes from setup file in testcurl.pl

    • BSD-style lwIP TCP/IP stack experimental support on Windows

    • telnet: Allow programatic use on Windows

    • curl_getdate: Detect some illegal dates better

    • When sending a request and an error is received before the (entire) request body is sent, stop sending the request and close the connection after having received the entire response; this is equally true if an Expect: 100-continue header was used

    • When using both -J and a single -O with multiple URLs, a missing init could cause a segfault

    • -J fixed for escaped quotes

    • libtests: Stop checking for CURLM_CALL_MULTI_PERFORM

    • Setting a non-HTTP proxy with an environment variable or with CURLOPT_PROXY/--proxy (without specifying CURLOPT_PROXYTYPE) would still make it do proxy-like HTTP requests

    • cookies: Handle 'secure=' as if it was 'secure'

    • tests: Break busy loops in tests 502, 555, and 573

    • FTP: Fix proxy connect race condition with multi interface and SOCKS proxy

    • RTSP: GET_PARAMETER requests have a body

    • Fixed several memory leaks in OOM situations

    • bad expire(0) caused multi_socket API to hang

    • Avoid ftruncate() static define with mingw64

    • mk-ca-bundle.pl: Ignore untrusted certs
