Armel Asselin made the CURLOPT_PREQUOTE option work fine even when CURLOPT_NOBODY is set true. PREQUOTE is then run roughly at the same place in the command sequence as it would have run if there would've been a transfer. 2006-08-08 18:56:46 -04:00			`This release includes the following changes:`

Link curl and the test apps with -lrt explicitly when necessary When curl calls a function from that library then it needs to explicitly link to the library instead of piggybacking on libcurl's own dependency. Without this, GNU ld with the --no-add-needed flag fails when linking (which Fedora now does by default). Reported by: Quanah Gibson-Mount Bug: http://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2010-09/0085.html 2010-09-11 20:04:05 -04:00			`o linking problem on Fedora 13`
