Without still having seen the error message you were confused by, I can't
do much else to help. I can't think of a better way to explain how to fix
the problem than what's currently there.

Well, the question then becomes: did you download the snapshot (including
the crypto (formerly called 'DES') collection) from a US server, or non-US
server? International people should be using the crypto collection from an
internationally-produced snapshot for maximum openssl performance.

Then, yes, you'll have to delete it after each new snapshot; just like
you'd have to delete sendmail, perl, or anything else we have compile-time
knobs for but which doesn't exist in a separate installation
collection. Them's the breaks..

It is (very) useful to have out of the box, and making sysinstall depend
on packages is ugly to special-case and difficult to maintain.
