Title:
  [FFe] update to pycurl 7.19.5

Status in “pycurl” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I recently uploaded 7.19.5-2 to unstable.   This version fixes several
  Debian reported bugs and also merges in the still-relevant Ubuntu
  deltas.  We'll need to continue to carry a delta for the cross-pocket
  build-deps, but these won't affect the functionality of the package.
  This version also re-syncs the Debian vcs with the NMU that was done
  by an non-team developer.

  I've confirmed the new version fixes LP: #1063350 since afaict there
  is no longer any floating point corruptions (even dropping the Ubuntu
  delta).

  The new version also fixes a bug that is relevant to system-image.
  From the upstream changelog:

          * When passing a file-like object to READDATA option, PycURL was
            mistakenly looking for write method on this object. Now read method
            is looked up, as would be expected.

  I've verified that a 7.19.5-2ubuntu1 builds and runs on Utopic.  I've
  tested it against the LP: #1063350 test case on physical i386 hardware
  and it does not exhibit the floating point corruption.
