I normaly do exactly that. But that still leaves the user with 481 MB of bloat in /usr/sfw , most of which is not required by the core O/S. This does not include the enormous bloat of Gnome, either. If OpenSSL is a requirement, the suggestion was made to move it to /usr/lib, which is reasonable. Forcing the user to install /usr/sfw with mysql, ImageMagick, and a host of other programs, including a specific version of GCC and its libraries should _not_ be required as part of the core O/S installation.
