Hi Vagrant, this is no longer an issue. Debian FTP masters are now treating OpenSSL as a system library, which makes it GPL-compatible, see the discussion at https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2020/10/msg00165.html (with confirmation by Sean from the FTP team) A number of other components in Debian have already switched back to OpenSSL, e.g. MariaDB.
