It would if you say yes.  It's not quite correct to say that the fix
doesn't get you further if you don't actually try it.

Yes.

libcurl3-unified and libcurl4 are development packages for building
against curl.  They don't do anything at runtime, anyway.  More to the
point, curl-ssl is obsolete and doesn't actually do anything.

The new "curl" package has SSL support built in.  Your current
"curl-ssl" is just a dummy package, anyway.  The real functionality is
in "curl-unified" (check 'dpkg -S /sw/bin/curl') , and the update is
just getting you back to the _name_ "curl". There should be no loss of
functionality between your existing "curl-unified" and the newer "curl".
