When I compile it under Mint 19.2 and try the app under Mint on the

On other machines (one Mint 18.2, the other not yet sure of the
specific version of Linux), I get various errors about missing
libraries, such as
Are you distributing the same libcurl binary shared library to the
different distros?
That is the issue I am still struggling with. I had assumed that by
packaging libcurl statically, I would get around the need for worrying
about any other libraries to be distributed. This my first real attempt
at building & sharing a Linux version of my app.
If I copy the file libcurl.so.4 to the same directory as the
executable, I end up with errors
On Linux, apps don't load shared libraries from the same dirs as the
applications just because they happen to be there, you need to also
change the path for where ld.so finds shareed libraries.
So I found out and I am still working on sorting all that out.
And I have by now, given up on the idea of linking libcurl statically
