And what if you create "dummy-openssl" library that contains nothing but empty
function declarations and you license it under GPL and you build Links against
it ... and then the user takes the Links binary built this way and loads it
into memory with real OpenSSL --- is it license violation or not and who is
doing the violation?

--- and where is the real "unparrotted" analysis?


I tried to install NSS --- it doesn't contain any general openssl functions,
such as SSL_read, in /usr/include/nss. Am I doing something wrong ... do I need
some other package? Which?

I managed to build Links against gnutls, but I'm getting runtime SSL errors. It
needs some more debugging.
