The issue here I think is that many people ended up with pkcs11-provider installed because of a recommendation. We should remove that recommendation, most users don´t need pcks11-provider installed.

That was the case with openssl-pkcs11 (the package that contains the OpenSSL PKCS#11 ENGINE) for years.
The use of PKCS#11 tokens is not very common. I don’t think it’s too much to ask to install an additional package if you want to use it.
