Hello Arturo

I stopped working on the package until wheezy release takes place. Just
uploaded my packaging repo to https://github.com/mmoya/thc-ipv6 for you
to look. No problem with working together on this.

This is an excerpt of communication with upstream regarding the SSL
issue (quoted text is mine):

ah sigh ... had the same issue with hydra. I do not have the time for
that at the moment, but the next release is scheduled for begin of
December anyway, so until then I should be able to do that.

until then you can make the package without ssl (the functionality
missing is useless anyway as there are no SeND deployments so far, and
thats all it is needed for)

its a typo obviously. withOUT

the libraries are always there in any installation I have seen, its the
include files which pose the problem, which are not installed by default
anywhere.
