JFTR the seafile needs an gpl+openssl exception too.

E: seafile-server: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl
E: seafile-client: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl
E: seafile-common: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl
E: seafile-applet: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl

Some very crude preliminary packaging (not yet even tried in clean chroot)
with some basic splitting into subpackages (without really understanding
the content and without tight dependencies between them) can be found:
