[Slackbuilds-users] R build fails on check for curl >=7.28

[phalange at komputermatrix.com]

I'm not using current. Curl was updated in Slack 15:

Mon Mar 20 18:26:23 UTC 2023
patches/packages/curl-8.0.1-x86_64-1_slack15.0.txz:  Upgraded.
   This update fixes security issues:
   SSH connection too eager reuse still.
   HSTS double-free.
   GSS delegation too eager connection re-use.
   FTP too eager connection reuse.
   SFTP path ~ resolving discrepancy.
   TELNET option IAC injection.
