Support for version 1.0.1 will cease on 2016-12-31. No further releases of 1.0.1 will be made after that date. Security fixes only will be applied to 1.0.1 until then. How is Ubuntu going to deal with that? Both Precise and Trusty currently have 1.0.1 versions, and both Ubuntu releases have a target life time beyond that date. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1596831 Title: Ubuntu 12.04_5 LTS and openSSL 1.0.1 EOL Status in openssl package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: With OpenSSL 1.0.1 EOL in December this year, openSSL needs to be upgraded to version 1.0.2.
