That's what I assumed, but how does one find the exceptions? Ie. in this case I didn't know that mod_ssl needed to be recompiled to make use of the most recent build of openssl; the GLSA only addressed openssl. What else might I have missed? And in the future, particularly for security fixes, how does one find out what has static links and thus needs to be rebuilt? Joel Osburn -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
