Comment 12 for bug 150277

Using prevu to install curlftpfs from Hardy did not solve my problem, and it says that it can't install libcurl. Is there a different package I need to install?
Why not just release a patched package, using the patch that was kindly provided a month ago? Forcing users to install a hack to get a usable package is very distasteful to me.
And no, I will not upgrade to Hardy just for one package. I run a server so I can not run beta software.
