Packages use several cryptography libraries because different packages
require different libraries. hostapd uses OpenSSL, dnsmasq Nettle and
ustream-ssl can use multiple libraries for example. In itself this is
also not a major problem.
We could unify all packages to use a single cryptography libr

For some narrow things they are slightly interchangeable, but for many things
you want one of these to avoid the bloa

This sounds like a huge task.
Maybe you can extend a program so it supports a different crypto library that
is also used in the LEDE/OpenWRT ecosys
