> I assume that this will be an ''optional'' spkg, only needed if one's
computer doesn't have openssl dev "headers" and wants to build from
scratch and/or use the OpenID logins?
OpenSSL would be ''required'' both to build and run Sage. The spkg is
optional only in the sense that you don't need it if the operating system
provides it. Since OpenSSL is truly ''required'' for Sage, it's dubious
that Sage is obeying the GPL, but IANAL.
