[Bug 1613698] [NEW] curl: Problem with chunked encoded data

[Joe]

Public bug reported:

curl in Ubuntu 14.0.4 suffers from a bug ("Problem (2) in the Chunked-
Encoded data") introduced in curl 7.35.0
(https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/345891edba32312686e18d8ff185f4476b74e417).

See the corresponding thread on the curl mailing list:
* https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2014-02/0100.html
* https://curl.haxx.se/mail/lib-2014-02/0108.html

Googling for "Problem (2) in the Chunked-Encoded data" shows that this seems to be a problem for other Ubuntu users, too. For example:
* https://github.com/jackalope/jackalope-jackrabbit/issues/89#issuecomment-55084492
* https://www.mastizada.com/blog/chunked-encoded-data-error-in-php-curl-requests/
* https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=72131

------------

The issue was fixed in curl 7.36.0 with
https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/0ab97ba0090f2609760c33000181f08757336a48

If you applied that patch to curl in Ubuntu 14.04, I'm sure you'll make
a lot of people happy - including me. Thanks!
