Ah right thanks, it even says so in the manual :)

But thinking this through: /etc/ibrdtn/bpsec is meant to hold the
private key and cert for the Bundle Security Protocol, which are meant
to be generated by ibrdtn-genkey.sh, which uses openssl and hexdump to
generate it.  So technically, IBRDTN_WITH_TLS has to select OPENSSL_BIN
and BUSYBOX_HEXDUMP. However, if the target rootfs is read-only, running
ibrdtn-genkey.sh on the target is futile, and in this case, those
dependencies are unneccessary.  The key material would rather need to be
generated at build time and/or put into projectroot/etc/ibrdtn/bpsec by
the user.  So I'm rather thinking about adding a menuconfig option
"install ibrdtn-genkey.sh", and let the users decide whether they want
to generate keys on the target or deploy them via projectroot/.  I tried
hacking the key generation into the targetinstall stage, but didn't get
it to work, and that really seems more like a job for the configure script.
