I've updated the version of OpenSSL to 0.9.8o-2. This also includes the openssl-devel packages and, that's NEW, the libopenssl098 package!
In the first place this update introduces a change in the packaging scheme of openssl. The base package does not contain the runtime libraries anymore, rather they are now in the libopenssl098 package. This allows easier upgrading to the next version of openssl, 1.0.0a-1, which will introduce partially backward incompatible libraries. This update also introduces new functionality: - Support for the MDC-2 hash function. This wasn't included so far for patent reasons, but even in the worst case the U.S. patent has expired in March 2010. - The long outstanding support for Zlib compression.

Then, run setup and answer all of the questions. *** CYGWIN-ANNOUNCE UNSUBSCRIBE INFO *** If you want to unsubscribe from the cygwin-announce mailing list, look at the "List-Unsubscribe: " tag in the email header of this message.
