Ideally we'd need to add a REQUIRE_OPENSSL_VERSION directive I think. We'd make a special case of openssl but it simply matches the reality which is that we have a very tight relation with it. I wouldn't be surprized if in the future we also have to add a kernel version test for certain advanced features. > Or maybe we should just get rid of CentOS 6 tests, it will be end of > life on November, 30th anyway. It depends. Extended support is still valid for 4 more years, however I can't imagine users running a newer haproxy version on that old a system. Those relying on old systems just do that because they can't afford to have moving pieces in mission critical deployments. They'd definitely not upgrade haproxy on such a system! So yes, I think it can make sense to remove RHEL6 from the tests if it's too much of a burden to maintain. Or maybe we can adopt Ilya's workaround until 2.2 is released, and completely drop it afterwards ? Willy
