That's a reoccurring issue with dependency walker. Perhaps, we need a way to
tell it to not include specific packages as a dependency, if we know it would
be a mistake to do so? Rather than manually fix it again, and again, and...
These Perl scripts are nonessential for OpenSSL functionality, and not
required to be used, unless you have very specific needs.
