Hello, it is no mandatory need to link mbuffer against libcrypto/OpenSSL. The problem is that the upstream source Thomas Maier-Komor made a mistake in "configure.in", in specifying the reverse check order for the intended order of preference (he explicitely writes this order in the documentation)
libmhash, libmd5, and libcrypto. I submitted a remark and patch about this fact to the upstream source two days ago, and I have produced an almost lintian clean (modulo NMU etc.) package of mbuffer that links against libmhash, contrary to the a priori outcome of the tar-ball. Thus it is now fairly strightforward to produce an GPL-ed package "mbuffer". It is a question of regeneration with autotools.
