Hi Thomas,

I did not forget about answering your question, was just busy with the 
security bump for libX11 ;)

In fact you were right about that only the host package is needed.
I guess during the build tests I mixed up the target and host versions, 
first I used the target package, which caused an error in the other 
packages, then I tried the host package, which was broken as well (but I 
kept its files in the host install of perl), then switched back to the 
target package, still broken, and at last I added the "OPENSSL_PREFIX=" 
hack to the target package which, together with the still installed host 
files, produced working builds of perl-crypt-openssl-{random, rsa}. But I 
did not notice that really the host files were, together with the hack, 
were responsible for the sucessful build.

Sorry for the confusion ;)

Regards, Bernd
