    yum depends on an internet connection.  Many secure servers do not have access to the internet, including ours.  Just because that is the way you do it, doesn't mean everyone else does it that way.

    Understood.
    There are other alternatives documented in the article above if AIX system don't have direct internet access. If that is also not possible, then suggest you to setup a AIX repo in sync with Toolbox repo in a linux machine (having internet access) and run the below command (from the linux machine) on that repo to get all the dependencies of curl.

    # repoquery --requires --resolve --recursive curl
    ca-certificates-0:2016.10.7-1.ppc
    libgcc-0:8.3.0-2.ppc
    zlib-0:1.2.11-1.ppc
    libssh2-0:1.8.2-1.ppc
    krb5-libs-0:1.16.1-2.ppc
    openldap-0:2.4.50-1.ppc
    libnghttp2-0:1.41.0-1.ppc
