Description Kevin Bryan 2015-12-07 16:20:07 UTC

This doesn't seem to be needed, since version 11 ships with openssl 1.0.1. Since openssl 0.9.8 is going out of support, this dependency should be removed so it can removed the system. (acroread seems to be the only other thing left that wants openssl:0.9.8, and that is also out of support and should likely be dropped)

Reproducible: Always

Although this bug was filed first, the linked bug is the bug linked for the openssl:0.9.8 tracking bug and has more details.
