This is our own Linux distribution and _I_ am the maintainer
of it, so _I_ have to check for security fixes and updates!
I do this for about ten years now, so I'm quite used to the

This is the first time I saw a binary incompatibility
problem between minor updates with the openssl libraries,
so I figured I'd rather report it...
