Install Webmin should attempt to install perl-Net-SSLeay package

If using yum or apt-get, there should be an attempt to install perl-Net-SSLeay packages. Having Webmin installed without it being available leads to ssl=0 in the miniserv.conf, which means that even if the SSL lib appears later, Webmin won't use it.

What's worse, however, is that after switching to SSL, Cloudmin continues to try to reach it on http rather than https and so Webmin appears "Down" even when it's up. Much worse, I don't see how to fix it in Cloudmin.

+1, I always do 'yum -y install perl-Net-SSLeay' before installing webmin. :-)
