If he knows that his application is satisfied by openssl-0.9.8_0.9.8a-1, why would it break? No app in testing breaks because the newer openssl enter testing. The automated shared lib dependency calculation surely works but does not always give optiomal results, e.g. it will pin to a specific libc (building packages of non-free apps is sometimes better done with setting the depends manually). Update in a hurry: problem of the maintainer. binNMU & recompilation: won't break if the app really works with this older version and the lib must be ABI-compatible anyway. Automatism is good but not the only way to do stuff. HS -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
