What does it mean by - Protocol "http" not supported or disabled in libcurl?

I was trying to build a package in copr. It seems like it cannot download sources.

cmd: ['git', 'checkout', 'master']
cwd: /var/lib/copr-rpmbuild/workspace/workdir-e3_ui4ja/gimp-2.99-fedora-spec
rc: 0
stdout: Your branch is up to date with 'origin/master'.
stderr: Already on 'master'

Generated rpkg config:
[rpkg]
preprocess_spec = True

[git]
anon_clone_url = https://github.com/%(repo_path)s

[lookaside]
download_url = https://${git_props:remote_netloc}/repo/pkgs/%(repo_path)s/%(filename)s/%(hashtype)s/%(hash)s/%(filename)s

Writing config into /var/lib/copr-rpmbuild/workspace/workdir-e3_ui4ja/.config/rpkg.conf
Running: rpkg srpm --outdir /var/lib/copr-rpmbuild/results --spec /var/lib/copr-rpmbuild/workspace/workdir-e3_ui4ja/gimp-2.99-fedora-spec/gegl04

Should I use only https link to download files?

When adding a new build on Copr, did you check Other options: ☑️ Enable internet access during this build at the bottom of the page?

This archive is available over https. Making sure internet access is enabled in the build and changing http to https here should fix it for you.

Yes. I have enabled it already.

In your rpm spec:

Change this: http://download.gimp.org/pub/gegl/0.4/gegl-0.4.36.tar.xz

To this: https://download.gimp.org/pub/gegl/0.4/gegl-0.4.36.tar.xz
