sudo doesn't strictly need OpenSSL. That dependency is part of it's log server client implementation, and it's also available for the plugin system.
I had no idea sudo even had the need for plugins.
Which raises the question, maybe there's a need for two different sudo implementations. One that provides the simplest possible implementation of the feature, and another one that provides fancy log server and plugin integrations.
