Ok, sorry for dragging this topic on further, but I guess I'm dense and I don't understand packaging and versioning.
If I have openssl-0.9.6-9 on my system (containing libcrypto.so.1), doesn't that imply that I have a newer version of openssl than the version I've been seeking, openssl-0.9.6b-8 (containing libcrypto.so.2). What exactly is this numbering scheme - does the "b" stand for "beta" and the last digit the release number? If all this is true, why does the older openssl-0.9.6b-8 contain this newer libcrypto.so.2?! I'm losing me mind. Some system info: -- version of openssl on my system # rpm -q openssl openssl-0.9.6-9 -- libcrypto library it contains # rpm -q openssl -l | grep libcrypto /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6 -- other libcryptos on my system # locate -r libcrypto.so.* /usr/lib/libcrypto.so /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.6 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.5a /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 On Monday 08 April 2002 12:48 pm, you wrote: > On Mon, 8 Apr 2002, Noah Davis wrote: > > OK, I got the package.
