Public bug reported: Curl has become a widely-used go-to tool for bootstrapping software on new installs of Ubuntu, and currently it is not included in the minimal install, which is used widely in cloud and container environments.
It would be great if curl could be included in ubuntu-minimal, as it is commonly expected to be on any Ubuntu system when following instructions to bootstrap various software projects on Ubuntu. Even the curl provided by busybox would be a good step to getting less experienced users off the ground in a cloud-computing context. ** Affects: ubuntu-meta (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1909956 Title: Include curl in ubuntu-minimal Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Curl has become a widely-used go-to tool for bootstrapping software on new installs of Ubuntu, and currently it is not included in the minimal install, which is used widely in cloud and container environments.
