why do the openssl libraries go in /lib?
Because there exist programs outside of /usr which need them.
For example:
rpm -q --requires -f /bin/rpm
Is it possible to figure out easily which programs only require the
parts of openssl that don't reference other libraries (e.g. kerberos) in
/usr, i.e. whether a program will be able to run OK without /usr mounted?
