Is curl going to be updated to support ftps session resumption in the

onto the system?
the point of RHEL / CentOS is to provide stability, so packages are
generally
not updated to newer versions. So cURL for CentOS 7 will remain as is.
It's fairly simple to build yourself a newer cURL binary though:
$ wget
https://github.com/curl/curl/releases/download/curl-7_79_1/curl-7.79.1.tar.gz
$ tar xzf curl-7.79.1.tar.gz
$ cd curl-7.79.1
$ ./configure --with-openssl
$ make
$ src/curl -V
curl 7.79.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.79.1 OpenSSL/1.0.2k-fips
zlib/1.2.7 zstd/1.5.0 libidn2/2.3.0 OpenLDAP/2.4.44
Release-Date: 2021-09-22
Protocols: dict file ftp ftps gopher gophers http https imap imaps ldap
ldaps mqtt pop3 pop3s rtsp smb smbs smtp smtps telnet tftp
Features: alt-svc AsynchDNS HSTS HTTPS-proxy IDN IPv6 Largefile libz
NTLM NTLM_WB SSL UnixSockets zstd
You can use a packager such as togo to roll your own RPM:
https://github.com/genereese/togo
Alternatively, you can just put the new binary into /usr/local/bin,
update
your scripts to use that curl instead of the one in /usr/bin and call it
a day.
Remember though, using your own cURL means you will no longer get
security updates,
so you may want to subscribe to their mailing-list to get notified when
an update
is recommended.
Kind regards,
Steve
