Ok, just updated Viber on my laptop to 6.0.1 and yes, it uses libcurl--
specifically:

# ldd /opt/viber/Viber | grep curl
/opt/viber/Viber: /lib64/libcurl.so.4: no version information available
(required by /opt/viber/Viber)
	libcurl.so.4 => /lib64/libcurl.so.4 (0x00007fed83d7c000)

My appologies for poking my nose in.
