The point was not not having curl, but having the wrong curl version/cvar set to using the wrong curl version.

Just had the same problem and this fixed it

su
ln -s /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib/libcurl.so.3

Give that a shot.

Yes, this error either means you don't have curl installed on your linux distro, or that the cl_curllib setting in-game is not set to the right name of the lib.

yes, the cvar works (I had the same problem and consulted the forum to find a fix). but wouldn't it be much more future proof and player friendly to change DEFAULT_CURL_LIB to libcurl.so on linux instead of a specific version..? or at least mention it in the (linux-)readme?

just a suggestion.

I dunno, this is a design choice from ioq3, so I assume there was some logic behind it. They might have changed it in newer revisions.

right, I'm complaining on the wrong forum again :)

but anyway, I think any UrT linux player will eventually encounter this problem (as version 3 of libcurl is outdated) and a lot of people want to try a new maps. So maybe mention this in the FAQ or make this topic sticky?

Which curl for your Linux:

l:~# apt-cache search libcurl | sed '/lua/d;/libwww/d;/python/d;/tcl/d;/ocaml/d;/Pascal/d;/flick/d;/gnutls/d;/GNOME/d;/gimp/d;/wmget/d;/openssl/d;/dbg/d'



Installing curl for your system:

apt-get install `apt-cache search libcurl | sed '/lua/d;/libwww/d;/python/d;/tcl/d;/ocaml/d;/Pascal/d;/flick/d;/gnutls/d;/GNOME/d;/gimp/d;/wmget/d;/openssl/d;/dbg/d'`




Locating it:

su root
updatedb
locate libcurl | grep "/usr/lib" | sed '/gnutls/d'



Output:

Quote

/usr/lib/libcurl.so.3
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.4
/usr/lib/libcurl.so.4.0.1


Set the cvar:
Linux:

/seta cl_cURLLib = "libcurl.so.4.0.1"



Windows:

/seta cl_cURLLib = "libcurl-3.dll"



Mac:

Curl resides in /usr/lib/

/seta cl_cURLLib = "libcurl.dylib"



:-D
