I would be most grateful if you could drop the perl dependency for stretch.

I'm not suggesting to add libwww-curl-perl.

I'm not sure why we have things in /usr/lib/ssl/misc/, which
doesn't sound like a useful place to put things.

Note that there are actually manpages for them, so maybe we should
move them to /usr/bin/?

We should probaby get rid of the whole /usr/lib/ssl/

But I think we shouldn't change anything for stretch, except maybe
changing from perl to perl-base.
