Description Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-07-14 21:49:12 UTC
We should have an ebuild for OpenSSL 3.0 during the alpha and beta stages to ensure we're ready for release and to track any issues from the fallout.

Any such ebuild should be masked because of upstream's clear statement that it is not safe for practical/real life/security-dependnt uses.
Comment 1 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2020-07-15 12:22:25 UTC
After discussion, we're going to wait until a beta is out, because feedback is going to be more valuable for maintainers at that point.
