Hi Prashanth, Unless there's a good reason, the Jammy/Focal version of openssh will stay the version it is. Likely, any changes to this package will be specific commits which will have to go through the SRU process[0] if it can be justified.
Is there a reason you are trying to test the latest openssl on Jammy? Unless something happens, the openssl version in Jammy should remain the version it is, excluding SRUs which are mentioned above, so Jammy shouldn't need to support OpenSSL 3.1.X.

This is because SSHD gets restarted when OpenSSL 3.1 gets installed. But it fails to come up and we lose SSH access to the box. Debug logging on SSHD shows the below error when it tries to start : OpenSSL version mismatch. Built against 30000020, you have 30100020 After researching in online forums, it appears that this is an OpenSSH bug and it's been fixed in version 9.4p1 and 9.5p1 via this fix : https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/commit/b7afd8a4ecaca8afd3179b55e9db79c0ff210237 However, it appears that only 8.9p1 version of openssh-client and openssh-server are available in Ubuntu packages. Requesting you to please release openssh versions 9.4p1 or 9.5p1 on Jammy and Focal which will help us move past this bug and start testing OpenSSL 3.1 for our use cases.
