    Build libcurl for android NDK

Libcurl requires openssl and zlib to be fully operationnal

Step 1 : cross compile zlib
Step 2 : cross compile openssl
Step 3 : cross compile curl with zlib/openssl external link

Prerequisites :

NDK installed
NDK added to PATH : PATH=$PATH:/home/user/android-ndk
standalone toolchain generated and added to path : PATH=$PATH:/home/user/android-toolchain/bin

 Build zlib for arch arm-linux-androideabi


get sources

wget http://zlib.net/zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz
tar -xvzf zlib-1.2.8.tar.gz
cd zlib-1.2.8

 Build openSSL for arch arm-linux-androideabi
