I'm still wondering what you're trying to achieve with this change.
The stated benefits[1] are that the "minimal variants are smaller",
which is a non-goal for almost everyone. And something to do with
security which will be immediately negated once everyone unbreaks
their Fedora by installing curl-full. And the security angle would be
better fixed by reviewing Fedora packages for correct use of
CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS (see my other email[2]).

Let's not replay the discussion unless we have anything new to say.
