If you want to use SFTP which is secure, you have to install libcurl-full, which brings in support for the horribly insecure Telnet protocol and more, increasing the attack surface for every application using curl, unless they set CURLOPT_PROTOCOLS, which most don't :-( Everyone has their own conflicting idea of what is 'minimal'. There's no nice way to solve this problem in Fedora without curl upstream supporting dlopen modules per protoocol, allowing us to package each protocol independantly.
