Thanks for explaining and pointing to the relevant source.  Then it
seems the change you propose is justified.  in libssh (not libssh2),
they recently deprecated the use of libgcrypt and I've already migrated
the package to use openssl instead, so both libssh and libssh2 will be
relying on openssl, which will at least be consistent.
