I have no idea about this stuff; installed the machine 3 years ago, and 
have done an apt-get dist-upgrade once in a while, not really thinking 
about openssl until I ran into this bug.
But as far as I can see, lots of stuff depends on libssl3t64, and 
libssl3t64 depends on openssl-provider-legacy, so I guess I need it?
