curl: (2) Failed initialization from anaconda

[shanjoshi]

Hello,

If one uses curl supplied by anaconda, it fails:
curl: (2) Failed initialization from anaconda

This is because
ldd //anaconda/bin/curl
returns
libcurl.so.4 => //anaconda/lib/libcurl.so.4
However LD_LIBRARY_PATH does not include anaconda/lib

After anaconda installation, the anaconda/bin directory is added to the PATH using ~/.bashrc, but the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not updated.
So when one runs curl, it's picking up the wrong libs.

There was some suggestion about removing curl altogether (#72). May not be a bad idea.

Platform: Linux
conda version: 3.5.0
Anaconda version: 1.9.2

libcurl.so.4 => //anaconda/lib/libcurl.so.4

This is intended. It is actually pointing to the right library. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not needed since it uses RPATH.
