Thanks for the insight re. broken dependencies!

I'm not looking for any fire and forget solutions, just trying to get
the a good understanding of the issues.  When you say that you checked
each package by hand, what were you checking with?  I (obviously) don't
know how to tell if a given program/package is affected in such as way
as to require being recompiled after any given update.

Firstly, restart it if it's a daemon. If it's a library, I'd again do a qpkg -I -q <library>, to find any services which use that library, and restart them. You can also use ldd to see whether a binary, (or library), is linked to openssl, and make sure it's re-invoked to use the new library.


Just out of interest, if anyone can answer, would prelinking affect any of this? Could I still simply reload all programs that link to a library, and get them using the new library. Ignorance of prelinking evident :)
