Bug#990498: CCurlFile::FillBuffer - Failed: Error in the HTTP2 framing layer(16)

[Mathieu Malaterre]

Source: kodi
Version: 2:17.6+dfsg1-4

For some reason I cannot get any plugin to work in kodi today. I even
tried the bpo version.

My kodi.log is filled with:

Looking upstream, all I can find are:

https://github.com/xbmc/xbmc/issues/16616

which is not really helpful.

Hi Mathieu!

Can you please check if the following patch for curl 7.64.0-4+deb10u2 resolves your issue?
It is a backport of two patches merged in 7.65.0 and 7.67.0, respectively (see the commit msg
for details).

If that helps, I will reattach the bug to curl package since the patch is long-time merged
upstream.

Excellent ! My local build of kodi (git/master) now works, thanks much.

Using curl from 7.74.0-1.2~bpo10+1 now.

You truncated my answer:

[...]

Using curl from 7.74.0-1.2~bpo10+1 now.

[...]

That solved the symptoms AFAIK.

I could not test your patch, my local build of curl fails with a mysterious:

[...]
dh_install: warning: Cannot find (any matches for)
"usr/lib/*/libcurl.so.4*" (tried in debian/tmp, debian/tmp)
[...]

Thanks for your help,
