There are a couple of reasons behind the changes in this build.

1) Depending on libcrypto++ supplied by the distro, we would break on 64 bit distros that needed libcrypto++:amd64 since this is one of those rare packages where both the i386 and amd64 versions can't coexist (poor coding I presume).
2) The boost libraries are versioned and so users that were hacking on to non-debian distros by linking to different libboost_regex shared libraries were in danger of crashes.

Does this mean that the libs are actually no longer needed for operation or just that the dependencies were removed?

Edit:  Ah, I see that they're pre-packaged in the deb now.

Yes, they are in the deb built as part of the project with no dependencies that weren't already required by the rest of the package.
