Please have a look at the handbook (as told in the description of
AUTOMATIC_PLIST in bsd.linux-rpm.mk). There you can find some words
about using static plists instead of plists which are generated at
build time. The linux infrastructure ports are definitively cases where
we can provide a static plist.

Because of this I can't determine if this port contains just the lib or
other stuff too. A way to just install the lib in case it is needed as
a dependency would be nice, in case there's no reason to install the
curl binary. Currently I can't come up with a reason why we need the
curl binary, is there one I don't think of?

In case there is a reason for the curl binary: the port is missing some
BRANDELF_* stuff.

Feel free to ask on emulation@ for review of linux ports.

Bye,
Alexander.
