Looking to build the latest cURL from the source?

Lately, I was testingHTTP/3using cURL with the default shipped version on CentOS, but that didnt work.

BTW, there are more you might do withcURL.

However, the latest cURL version (7.67) supports HTTP/3.

So, I had only one option build from the source.

This is just one example; you may have some other requirements.

The following example is for 7.67 (latest as I write) on CentOS 8.x and Ubuntu 20.x.

But the procedure remains the same for any other version.
