Lintian tag information: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl (type: classification)

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

This package appears to be covered by the GNU GPL but depends on the
OpenSSL libssl package and does not mention a license exemption or
exception for OpenSSL in its copyright file. The GPL (including version 3)
is incompatible with some terms of the OpenSSL license, and therefore
Debian does not allow GPL-licensed code linked with OpenSSL libraries
unless there is a license exception explicitly permitting this.

If only the Debian packaging, or some other part of the package not linked
with OpenSSL, is covered by the GNU GPL, please add a Lintian override for
this tag. Lintian currently has no good way of distinguishing between that
case and problematic packages.

Please refer to Bug#972181 and
http://meetbot.debian.net/debian-ftp/2020/debian-ftp.2020-03-13-20.02.html
for details.
