Yes, this is a missing dependency issue.  Since openssl is now pointing to
a new version, and these packages have not been recompiled, they need to
put openssl097 into their list of dependencies instead.  Thanks for the

I'm cc'ing the cygwin-apps list, where such issues are usually discussed.
Package maintainers, please note.
