Uwe Korn commented on ARROW-10138:
----------------------------------
An interesting view on bundling / not bundling OpemSSL is to look at what
happened with the psycopg2 Python package. They did stop building wheels as
they contain OpenSSL and advised people to build themselves. As a workaround,
they provided the psycopg2-binary package as a renaming.on PyPI to still
provide wheels. Nowadays some packages, most prominently Airflow
https://github.com/apache/airflow/blob/c74b3ac79a276d8e9fb2b7668762f027c12d0e30/setup.py#L361,
depend on exactly this package as user frustration was so large with the one
without wheels.

> aws-sdk-cpp requires it and it seems easy enough to build. Arguably you
> *should* manage openssl as a system package but that's not always feasible
> for all of our packages, and the manylinux wheel scripts already build and
> bundle openssl.
