hi,

i am running debian etch stable. the version of openssl is too old. what i did is to download "openssl-0.9.8i.tar.gz" and:

./config --prefix=/usr --openssldir=/etc/ssl threads shared zlib-dynamic
make && make install

i did not apt-get remove openssl, cause many software depends on it... yes, it's pretty ugly i guess... the problem is that the version of openssl is updated, but not the library as you can see by the following command:

openssl version
OpenSSL 0.9.8i 15 Sep 2008 (Library: OpenSSL 0.9.8c 05 Sep 2006)

how can i upgrade the library to 0.9.8i?

ldconfig -v | grep ssl
libssl.so.0.9.8 -> libssl.so.0.9.8
libgnutls-openssl.so.13 -> libgnutls-openssl.so.13.0.9
libssl.so.0.9.8 -> libssl.so.0.9.8
libssl.so.0.9.8 -> libssl.so.0.9.8
libssl.so.0.9.8 -> libssl.so.0.9.8

ls -l libssl*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 375544 2008-10-13 10:28 libssl.a
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     15 2008-10-13 10:28 libssl.so -> libssl.so.0.9.8*
-r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 277720 2008-10-13 10:28 libssl.so.0.9.8*


thank you for your time,
patrick
