]
Alexander Shorin closed COUCHDB-734.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Close as fixed since long time passed (not actual cURL/CouchDB versions) and
cURL is soft dependency in latest actual releases (see COUCHDB-1042). Feel free
to reopen if it still issue still raises with newer versions.
> curl 7.18 dependency blocks build on RHEL/CentOS 5.x
> ----------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-734
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-734
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: JavaScript View Server
> Affects Versions: 0.11
> Environment: RHEL 5.5 & derivatives
> Reporter: Martin Foster
>
> 0.11.0 uses curl_easy_setopt() functions that are only present in curl > 7.18
> backporting curl 7.18 is a major problem for RHEL 5 & derivative
> distributions who have 7.15
> the problem is with the two callbacks, used by couchdb/priv/couch_js/httpd.c
> CURLOPT_SEEKFUNCTION & CURLOPT_SEEKDATA
> my knowledge of curl's API is near-zero, but I believe a 7.15 compatible
> implementation is possible. If possible it would be great to maintain
> compatibility with curl 7.15 until RHEL6 becomes generally available.
