To be honest, there is no correct way of handling this. For the time being we'd rather let maintainers have their own patches as it is their responsibility to keep them up to date with whatever version of OpenSSL their system is running. I didn't close the pull request because the diff isn't wrong, it is just not right either, it is a fix to an issue we should not be facing... and I still have hope we can find a solution that doesn't involve it. There's work by fellow OpenBSD hackers to improve the situation. -- Gilles Chehade https://www.poolp.org @poolpOrg -- You received this mail because you are subscribed to [email protected] To unsubscribe, send a mail to: [email protected]
