There are two versions of QtCurve in SBo's repository. The Gtk2 and the KDE3 
version. The Gtk2 download link points to kde-look.org, whereas the one for 
the KDE3 version points to another site.
Now I just tested and found the other link to be working for the Gtk2 version 
as well. This would be:
http://home.freeuk.com/cpdrummond/QtCurve-Gtk2-0.55.2.tar.bz2

0.55.1 is still there too, so I guess they stay there a bit longer :).
