Do you want people to switch to using Ubuntu or not? People don't want
to have to do extra managerial things, they want the PC to do it for
them. That's what Windows does and that's why it's so popular. I'd have
to look up the proper process but shall I repackage it with the curl
dependency and fix the problem for others? It's still a bug.

Title:
  PlayOnLinux requires curl even though it isn't a dependancy

Status in “playonlinux” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When I try to open PlayOnLinux from Terminal with the command
  `playonlinux` or from the Application Finder (Xubuntu) I get the
  following message:

  
  `PlayOnLinux cannot find curl (from cURL)

  You need to install it to continue`

  
  If it needs to have curl to be run, surely it should be a dependancy?
