I was wondering if there is a reason why the openssl in buildroot is
so old? buildroot-svn is using 0.9.7e (Oct 25, 2004) and the latest
version 0.9.8d (Sept 28, 2006). Likewise openssh 3.9p1 and the latest
is 4.4p1 (Sept 27, 2006). It would seem that you would want to keep
something like this fairly current.
Thanks,
Clem

All it takes is a patch bumping the version in
package/openssl/openssl.mk. You can email it to the mailing list or use
http://bugs.uclibc.org/.

It's quick and easy to bump to any version, but you also have to check
that other apps that use an updated library (ssl in that case, see
*/*/*.mk) work fine. It is possible that updating a lib alone is not
sufficient but implies that some apps that use it have to be updated
too (and tested, of course).
