Unfortunately, your search for curl included descriptions so Ario hit
first.  To be sure, simply open a terminal session use the following
command:

sudo apt-get install curl

and you'll have what the K3 utility needs.  You can probably remove Ario
safely as it is a music player client that uses curl but does not
provide it.  In fact, I'd not even heard of it until your message and had
to look it up!

Things should work for you with the curl package installed.
