While it is James who insisted on RHEL being the oldest supported distro
many years ago, I have no issues with keeping SLES *or* RHEL as the
oldest supported distro, in regards to package dependencies.

Do we know if we have a large group of SLES 11 users?  Initially I
thought it was related to OpenVPN-NL ... until I recalled that
OPenVPN-NL should be built against mbed TLS :)
