Apologies for dredging up an issue that has been apparently been in
published curl versions since at least about a year, but we've only
just encountered it while upgrading a system from Ubuntu 17.10 to
18.04. The relevant commit is
https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/dbcced8e32b50c068ac297106f0502ee200a1ebd#diff-ff9fb98500e598660ec2dcd2d8193aac
if I'm not mistaken.
This would have helped us much to have the curl version rather than the
Ubuntu's. After grepping Ubuntu's repository, it appears that curl's
version is 7.58.0.
In curl versions up to at least 7.56.0, setting
CURLOPT_ACCEPT_ENCODING to values other than NULL resulted in curl
decoding "gzip" and "deflate" and quietly passing any other Encoding,
such as "None", which is mistakenly used by one of our customers.
"None" is recognized from 7.59.0, containing the commit
https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/f886cbfe9c3055999d8174b2eedc826d0d9a54f1
that implements it. Maybe Ubuntu should upgrade ;-)
