Bug Description

libgadu depends on OpenSSL. This means that GPLed applications (such as Gaim) can't use libgadu.

This dependency was removed in Debian by recompiling with the --disable-libgadu-openssl flag.

The SSL support isn't used at all by any application (because the servers do not support SSL -- they haven't since Gadu-Gadu left beta).

Could the Ubuntu libgadu package be recompiled without OpenSSL support?

This doesn't seem unreasonable and a fairly easy fix. Unfortunately I am not a main uploader. Thank you for your report!
