Thanks for the bug report. I'm re-assigning it to libwww-perl (which includes LWP::UserAgent) because that's where the message comes from. If I read the code there correctly LWP::UserAgent works with either IO::Socket::SSL or Net::SSL (from Crypt-SSLeay) but the message mentions only the latter. I guess we should patch the output in lib/LWP/UserAgent.pm to mention both modules (and add libcrypt-ssleay-perl to Suggests in debian/control, which must have been there once according to debian/changelog).
