If curl-ssl is a replacement for curl-nossl that is not installed by default, I don't see a problem. > That sounds quite like "plac[ing] restrictions on other software that > is distributed along with the licensed software." If curl-ssl is linked to GPLed programs by default, it's not mere aggregation.
