All subsequent versions have been the slightly incompatible "libcurl.so.4" library version. You can't simply upgrade your curl version beyond 7.15.5 because lots of other RPM packages on your system will require the "libcurl.so.3" version. However, there is something you can do. I have some up to date curl versions (7.21.6) plus some backwards-compatibility packages (7.15.5) that you can install at the same time to get the benefit of the up to date curl without breaking the rest of the system. You can find them here: http://mirror.city-fan.org/ftp/contrib/sysutils/Mirroring/ You will need to download curl-7.21.6-2.0.cf.rhel5.x86_64.rpm, libcurl-7.21.6-2.0.cf.rhel5.x86_64.rpm and libcurl7155-7.15.5-12.cf.rhel5.x86_64.rpm, then install them all at the same time using rpm. If you have the i386 curl package installed as well, you'll want to do the same with the i386 packages. Given that you're doing development work with libcurl, you'll need the libcurl-devel packages too.
