This patch release was required to fix issues with curl-config no longer returning the correct library configuration for building into downstream tools, especially git, and a test library build failure. Thanks to Ken Brown for pointers to and help with patches. Patches are being submitted upstream to the curl project developer. curl is a command line tool and library for transferring files with URL syntax, supporting FTP, FTPS, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, TFTP, TELNET, DICT, and FILE. curl supports SSL certificates, HTTP POST, HTTP PUT, FTP uploading, HTTP form based upload, proxies, cookies, user+password authentication (Basic, Digest, NTLM, Negotiate...), file transfer resume, proxy tunneling and a busload of other useful tricks.
