https://rakudo.org/files/star/source libssl listed as dependency. #6

Maybe nitpicking on my part but technically neither libssl/libssl-dev nor git are needed as a build or runtime dependencies for Rakudo Star.

But probably anyone building from source on Linux is likely to have to add openssl quite quickly so that dependency is probably useful to them. zef probably installs some modules without git but really its likely to be useful anyway.

I am glad to hear this, because on Ubuntu 18.04, installing libssl-dev removes Node! See lp 1794589 c47 (the packaged 18.04 Node is v8, which requires libssl1.0-dev so can't use libssl-dev). Could https://rakudo.org/star/source be updated? Thanks!
