2.92 started using curl-provided HTTP decompression code, but it as discovered
|
|
that curl has [a bug] that effectively breaks its decompression code on HTTP/2
|
|
transfers. We have partially rolled back our changes and no longer use builtin
|
|
decompression methods provided by curl, but have kept the refusal of bzip2 and
|
|
xz content encodings introduced with 2.92 since they are not in the HTTP spec.
