Bug#279755: O: crypt-ssleay -- Support for https protocol in LWP
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
The current maintainer of crypt-ssleay, Stephen Zander <gibreel@debian.org>,
is apparently not active anymore. Therefore, I orphan this package
now. If you want to be the new maintainer, please take it -- see
http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp/index.html#howto-o for detailed
instructions how to adopt a package properly.

Description: Support for https protocol in LWP
This perl module provides support for the https protocol under LWP, so
that a LWP::UserAgent can make https GET & HEAD & POST requests. Please
see perldoc LWP for more information on POST requests.
.
The Crypt::SSLeay package contains Net::SSL, which is automatically
loaded by LWP::Protocol::https on https requests, and provides the
necessary SSL glue for that module to work via these deprecated modules:
Crypt::SSLeay::CTX, Crypt::SSLeay::Conn and Crypt::SSLeay::X509.
.
Work on Crypt::SSLeay has been continued only to provide https support
for the LWP - libwww perl libraries. If you want access to the OpenSSL
API via perl, check out Sampo's Net::SSLeay (available in Debian as
the libnet-ssleay-perl package).
