Ubuntu broke their #curl package for a while but seems to be fine again: github.com/curl/curl/issues/11…
#curl

I tried to find the actual diff of the broken patch by browsing launchpad but apparently I either don't know how to use that software or it isn't linked anywhere.

if memory serves, this was only an issue on arm platforms, and was actually due to a bug in openssl. It was broke for a long time, but then fixed... then was broken in RHEL builds for awhile (not sure if it has been fixed yet)

@philross I think you might be mixing issues. This problem was *today*, in curl and not only on arm.

oops, after reading the discussion I've concluded the same 😅 maybe this bug is a regression that's related to the fix for the bug I was thinking of (probably not). but the common theme is that curl wasn't actually the culprit
