Unlike with some similar issues, I don't appear to have an Android system version of curl installed at all.

[tchollingsworth]

I do have /system/lib/libcurl.so, but you set things up so it shouldn't be using it?

$ echo $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib

This is on a Moto G4 with Android 7.0 if that's helpful.

The symbol does seem to be genuinely missing:

$ nm -D /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libcurl.so | grep curl_mime_free
<no output>

[Grimler91]

I assume that you have made sure that everything is up to date? (apt update && apt upgrade)

curl_mime_free is included in libcurl.so on my arm device so something is very weird here.

$ uname -a
Linux localhost 3.4.39-5941801 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Oct 5 17:34:20 KST 2015 armv7l Android
$ nm -D $PREFIX/lib/libcurl.so | grep curl_mime_free
00038b8c T curl_mime_free

Does apt install libcurl --reinstall change anything?

[tchollingsworth]

Good catch, updating libcurl resolves the issue. (I didn't think to run an apt-get upgrade because I just recently installed Termux and did that.)

I got error

CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE "curl": cannot locate symbol "curl_url" referenced by "/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/curl"...

After I run a apt-get upgrade, it works like a charm...
