Calm down: There is nothing wrong with libcurl3, be it in extras, extras-devel or cssu. This is a common library, which might be installed in quite some N900s around.

Please try to describe what you tried to install an remove, with which application or in X-Terminal.
Please also describe the state your N900 is right now. Every bit of information might be useful.

I read over the internet that libcurl3 can resolve the problem of the facebook widget... I install the library, but it doesnīt work, the facebook widget continues with the problem... So.... I uninstall the library typing in the X-Terminal:

#sudo gainroot
#apt get-remove libcurl3

Then, the phone deletes EVERYTHING... and now is inusable... The phone doesnīt turn on..... And sometimes is on but in the secreen of nokia goes turn down again.. and again and again.... What can I do???

Did you really... i mean, honestly... let it do it???

If essential packages will get removed, apt-get would notify you.
If it deleted just the kernel and some libraries, you may try to flash the kernel from the firmware image explained in this wiki article http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_t...rt_topic.21.29

If this however is failing to boot the phone -there might be other errors, if it starts at all- your only chance is to flash the firmware to the phone according to that wiki article http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware
Do not flash the emmc, aka Vanilla. This would erase your data as well! You do not want this, do you?

You're not entirely honest with us. You're not telling us whole atory - the fact is, that between "apt-get remove" and "deletes everything", apt-get asks you, kindly, if you want to continue (listing packages that will get removed). You have to explictly type "y" and enter, to allow it.

So, famous bug called "user error". Considering amount of mess you've created by deleting plentora of essential packages, you're better to reflash, as michaaa62 said.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't play with it unless you really know what you are doing. Be ready to file proper bug reports instead of posting complaints.

Expected problems: crashes, battery drain, poor system performance, full disk space & more - SERIOUSLY!
Don't play with Extras-devel if you haven't backed up your data or aren't prepared to re-flash your device.
Could this message be made any more clearer?!
