Eh, no. curl 7.17.0 does *not* break this as you will see below.
Is it only a formal error by the curl side or openoffice.org requires to be
upgraded to the new API?
The error code CURLE_FTP_USER_PASSWORD_INCORRECT has been moved to the list of
codes that will be removed in the future, and thus it isn't present if you
define CURL_NO_OLDIES when you build.
So if you want backwards-compatible style you *don't* define CURL_NO_OLDIES
and you can use that define fine still. If you define it, you should be
prepared to edit some of the codes to the up-to-date versions.
| g++ -fmessage-length=0 -c -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -DCURL_NO_OLDIES -I.
So why do these guys explicitly switch off compatibility?
It seems that curl wanted to keep compatibility but actually broke it
because the subsitution doesn't work?
Nope. We still support the option as described above.
