Why is libcrypto statically linked? Are there versions of Android that do not ship with OpenSSL's shared libraries?

Hello @rossimo,

OpenSSL is included within Android, unfortunately given the wide spread of platform devices, the versions of OpenSSL vary quite dramatically. Including a static link of OpenSSL guarantees we are using the same version within SQLCipher, regardless of the Android platform we are running on.
