My current understanding is:

* Finance::Quote will work on its own without Crypt::SSLeay.

* gnucash will not support Finance::Quote unless Crypt::SSLeay is installed.

Based on this, it seems to me that as Crypt::SSLeay support is peculiar to gnucash's particular use of Finance::Quote, it should be required directly by gnucash.

I believe, but am not quite certain, that Finance::Quote has certain capabilities that are only available with Crypt::SSLeay installed. I would guess that in this case, libfinance-quote-perl should recommend but not require libcrypt-ssleay-perl. Is this how the recommends/requires policy works?
