Hello,
I think that it would be a good thing if GIMP could use libcurl to
download file from the web rather than wget.
Wget was not written for this purpose, I mean not to be used by other
programs using system calls but libcurl is the perfect library to
download file from the net.
More over wget is known to be very buggy and to have a lot of security
bugs. All wget security bugs apply to Gimp since it use it.
So I want to know if it possible to switch from wget to libcurl in
future version of Gimp.
Thank you and good bye.

X-Spam-Level:
This wishlist doesn't address any specific concerns that would be
ratified by using libcurl, so I'm closing it. In any case, gimp 2.4 will
optionally use gnome-vfs for file retrieval, which will make calling
wget unnecessary if gnome-vfs is present.
