And is a Perl script (means run-time dep to "perl"), and a very bad
script, too. I personally dislike this stuff, but ok, if people want it
then install it ("perl" is a build-time dep already). But please not
install it as "CA.pl" in <prefix>/bin/. Use just "CA" or even better
(perhaps my vote), install it into <prefix>/share/openssl/ and do not
add a run-time dep to Perl.. I don't know. I just know I personally
dislike it, so feel free to make your own decision and action ;-)
