I prefer to drop the packaging, there are serious ABI problems when
you combine software that use OpenSSL with other software that use
LibreSSL.

But, I can split out the LibreSSL libtls as a standalone package and
adapt it to use with our OpenSSL packages.  It is something we plan to
do in Ad=C3=A9lie anyway, so it may as well be incubated upstream.

Would the above solution be sufficient to resolve your concerns?
