Most likely because of licensing issues. OpenSSL is under a license that has restrictions not in the GPL. The FSF's interpretation of the GPL is that everything linked (even dynamically) into a single binary is a single "work" under copyright.[1] The GPL requires that no additional restrictions be added to the ones it places. This means that combining GPL source with the OpenSSL source to produce a program/library/package results in a work with no valid license; and Debian can't distribute copyrighted works without a valid license. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/ [1] The only time I ever read anything written by a lawyer on the topic, his opinion was that dynamic linking doesn't create a combined work.
