Description Omair Majid 2020-07-20 19:00:34 UTC
.NET Core 2.1 has a custom version of the curl package: rh-dotnet21-curl

.NET Core 3.1 also has custom version of the curl package: rh-dotnet31-curl

They are at different versions. 2.1 has curl 7.47. 3.1 has curl 7.61. We could sync them up so they are based on the same code-base. This will minimize the separate versions of libcurl we need to maintain and patch.

This was suggested by our product security folks.

Comment 3 Omair Majid 2020-08-05 21:49:26 UTC
One fallout from the change is that the newer build of curl doesn't have IDN (Internationlized Domain Name) support.

The older version of curl supported libidn. The newer version (7.61.1) only supports libidn2. libidn2 is not available on RHEL 7, so curl builds without support for IDN.

This is also true for the copy of curl in our .NET Core 3.1 collection: it also doesn't have IDN support.
