I completely understand the reasoning for that, and I ultimately agree
that we shouldn't be using multiple SSL stacks if we can avoid it.
However, we're already pulling in both OpenSSL and GnuTLS through a
transitive dependency because libmicrohttpd links with it. The only
difference, package-wise, would be that systemd-journal-remote gains an
explicit dependency on it and uses the available functionality.
