No. We provide Linux binaries in .zip and pretend they are
expected to work for all distros which simply can't happen in
general. Fedora bug report would not have been valid if not
implication that there is a supported binary distribution for
Fedora.
I suggest to simply stop pretending any kind of such support
exist and drop Linux binaries from .zip at all. Motivating people
to create dmd packages for their native distros scales much
better (and solves most/all curl issues for Linux)
