I don't want to reopen a general debate about the necessity of the crypto tree, but it seems to me that there are a couple of packages in there that don't need to be.

One case is ircii. I cannot see any reason why this is in crypto. Since I am maintaining it now, I took the liberty to move the new version out of crypto.

Other examples are maxima and yafc. Why are they in crypto?

My interest in this question comes from the fact that on this machine here I don't want to install fink's openssl. And since the latest change in python22, I cannot do fink update-all any more without having to install openssl, unless I desactivate the crypto tree completely. The problem is that the highest version of the python package is now no longer supplied by python-2.2.1-8, but by the "python" splitoff of python22-2.2.2-1, and the latter depends on openssl and lives in crypto.
