Doesn't have an effect on follow-ups.

GAH. I just completely missed it being GPL. Damnit.

I would first try to fix this problem sanely.

Upstream only dlopen()s libpaper. /me wonders whether that is considered
linking... A quick poll on IRC reveals that it's also seen as linking...

If not, I might just get away with reverting to dlopen() it (in which
case the package would still Depends on libpaper1, though, since it's
used in the papersize detection).

I'll clone this bug, please use the cloned bug for the GPL<->SSL
stuff...
