Hi Maintainer

hdf5 currently has build-dependencies on libcurl4-openssl-dev and
libssl-dev which no longer seem to be used.

Comparing part of a build log from 1.14.6+repack-2+b1 [1] and
2.2.0+repack-5 [2]:

libhdf5-openmpi-310_1.14.6+repack-2+b1_amd64.deb
------------------------------------------------
 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.38), libcurl4t64 (>= 7.16.2), libopenmpi40 (>=
5.0.10), libssl3t64 (>= 3.0.0), libsz2 (>= 1.1.6), zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.0)

libhdf5-openmpi-320_2.2.0+repack-5_amd64.deb
--------------------------------------------
 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.38), libopenmpi40 (>= 5.0.10), libsz2 (>=
1.1.7), zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.0)

Regards
Graham
