From the README file
libgnurl is a fork of libcurl with the following major changes:
Compilation requirements:
* libgnurl must be compiled so that it supports only HTTP and HTTPS
(remove Gopher, SSH, IMAP, etc.)
* libgnurl must be compiled so that it supports only GnuTLS (remove
CaySSL, QsoSSL, GSKit, etc.)
* removed support for NTLM, GSSAPI, SPNEGO, LDAP, metalink, HTTP2
* We recommend to build GnuTLS with DANE support, provided by 'unbound'.
This is optional.
The goal of the cURL project is clearly to support many crypto
backends and many protocols. That is a worthy goal, and I wish them
luck with it. The goal for libgnurl is to support only HTTP and HTTPS
(and only HTTP 1.x) with a single crypto backend (GnuTLS) to ensure a
small footprint and uniform experience for developers regardless of
how libcurl was compiled.
