Ubuntu
libmicrohttpd package

Installing latest?

Asked by Gavin Henry

Hi all,

I'd like to automate the install of the latest version due to:

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libmicrohttpd/2021-11/msg00004.html

What docs can you point me to as this isn't a PPA.

Many thanks,
Gavin.

Hi Gavin,

The issue is related to the API change introduced by v0.9.71.
You can use the trick to make your code universally compatible with old
and new MHD versions as suggested by Christian:

I think it would be good to get backport done for this.
