Enable `--compressed` parameter on curl to automatically enable
compression on request content by sending coressponding header, if the
server side supports compression format like deflate or gzip, curl will
also decompress the content automatically, so there is no additional
works need to done manually on client side, but just enjoy the benifits
of bandwidth and time saving!
Take https://nodejs.org/dist/index.tab as an example which is last
modified on Tue, 14 Mar 2017 22:41:05 GMT, the compressed transmission
only take 4829 bytes howevet the not compressed on taks 48000 bytes,
which is about 10 times larger!
This feature can be traced back to Sep 3 2002, in curl commit:
- 64bbe9dfaf
So should be supported on various versions widely.
1. If we are not going to install nodejs or io.js from source, we may
not need to have c++ compiler or libssl-dev package
2. the `build-essential` and `libssl-dev` packages should work on all
the Debian and Ubuntu based GNU/Linux distros
3. Remove useless blank lines
By manpath's man page in Ubuntu 16.04:
> If $MANPATH is set, manpath will simply display its contents and issue
> a warning.
By fa22d712ff for #1413, `nvm` now will
declare the "MANPATH" variable, no matter if it's set or not, so in the
situation that $MANPATH is set, you'll get the warning:
> manpath: warning: $MANPATH set, ignoring /etc/manpath.config
Note: I believe this does not fix the underlying issue in zsh, which is
that it does not split up `$ADDITIONAL_PARAMETERS` and instead passes
the contents as one single argument.
This was an "oops" on my part when I was testing changes for my work
that was later adapted & merged in f1bca106a8.
LibreSSL is never installed as a `libressl` as it is intended to be a
replacement for `openssl` as much as possible, and consequently the
executable is called `openssl`.
