openquantumsafe/curl is not working in Project IDX environment

[rishabhamar]

I am trying to setup a docket environment in project idx which supports X25519MLKEM768 curl but every time I do it, the connection fails.
What can i do in this situation if anyone knows how to use the docker container in project idx.
Project IDX is online developmental environment created by google and it uses nix os for its vm.
used the same docker file in my ubuntu virtual machine and it is working absolutley fine.
So what's the matter in Project IDX.

I cannot reproduce this problem:

docker run -it openquantumsafe/curl sh -c "curl -k --curves X25519MLKEM768 https://www.google.com:443"

works perfectly for me (as it also seems to do for you, locally). So this is an issue that indeed should be raised in project IDX: I don't know that environment at all.

[rishabhamar]

Ok I will try to raise this query in Project IDX as well

check if your curl is built using openssl backend (default is gnutls):

I don't have any problems:

Maybe the problem lies in the misconfigurations between the Project IDX (nix environment) and Docker Ubuntu Versions.

I will try to solve it and if it does then i will post the solution as well

Closing for now as this does not seem to be an OQS issue—but please feel free to share updates @rishabhamar.
