The Problem
I wanted to install a dns based adblocker on my OpenWRT 15.05.1 firewall. As I was trying to download the https://gist.github.com/teffalump/7227752#file-adblock-sh file my firewall denied to do so:
root@firewall:~# wget https://gist.github.com/teffalump/7227752#file-adblock-sh
Connecting to gist.github.com (192.30.253.118:443)
wget: can't execute 'openssl': No such file or directory
wget: error getting response: Connection reset by peer

The Solution
The problem there is, that wget wants to decrypt the https traffic, by utilizing the openssl command - which is simply not available. So the solution is to install the followng package: openssl-util

After the installation the download worked fine:
