Thanks, Randy.

Perhaps.

But I interpreted exactly the contrary.

Here what we have in the book:

{{{
    libwww-perl-6.05 (MD5 sum: 637d5f1eb61336ca2caa6e026b382f87)

        Encode::Locale

        HTML::Form

            URI-1.60

            HTML::Parser-3.71

            HTTP::Message

                HTTP::Date

                IO::HTML

                LWP::MediaTypes

        HTTP::Cookies

        HTTP::Negotiate

        Net::HTTP

        WWW::RobotRules

        HTTP::Daemon

        File::Listing

If you want the LWP installation to support the HTTPS protocol, install
the following modules:



    LWP::Protocol::https

        IO::Socket::SSL

            Net::SSLeay

        Mozilla::CA
}}}

I am interpreting that all bellow libwww-perl-6.05 is to be installed
before, so, LWP::Protocol::https needed to be installed before. I wanted
my LWP installation to support HTTPS, then I decided to install
LWP::Protocol::https. After, I would install LWP. But then
LWP::Protocol::https pulled also LWP.

The same for OpenSSL-1.0.1f: if I wanted HTTPS support, I needed to
install it before LWP, not after. Can LWP be installed and later, I
decide to install OpenSSL and LWP will work automatically detect it?
With browser, I believe it is the contrary.


May be it is difficulty from a non-English native. If you are saying
that the sentence means "to be installed after LWP", I would then
rephrase it to:

"After the LWP installation, if you want HTTPS protocol support,
install: ..."

But may be it is a particular problem of English non-proficiency.
