How to Install Curl on Ubuntu

When it comes to installing curl on Ubuntu, there are several steps you need to follow. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process.

Firstly, get a full listing of all available configure options by invoking curl like this: `./configure --help`. You probably need to be root when doing this command, so make sure you have the necessary permissions.

Next, adjust the configure line accordingly to use the TLS library you want. Unix installation is typically made in three or four steps after unpacking the source archive.

If you get your code from a git repository instead of a release tarball, see the GIT-INFO file in the root directory for specific instructions on how to proceed. Also, if the version is out of date, please create an issue or pull request on the vcpkg repository, as the curl port in vcpkg is kept up to date by Microsoft team members and community contributors.

Alternatively, you can download and install curl and libcurl using the vcpkg dependency manager: `git clone https://github.com/Microsoft/vcpkg.git`. This will give you a more up-to-date version of curl and libcurl.

This document describes how to compile, build, and install curl and libcurl from source code. It does not cover installing curl or libcurl using binary packages. Many people download binary distributions of curl and libcurl, but if you want to install them from scratch, this guide is for you.
