Package: curl
Version: 7.18.0-1+b1
Severity: normal

According to the standard, a URL can contain a literal IPv6 address as
its host part.  But curl fails to parse it correctly, confusing it
with its range syntax:

$ curl 'http://[::1]/index.html'
curl: (3) [globbing] illegal character in range specification at pos 9

wget handles this correctly.
