Hello David,

Sorry for not being able to respond to you sooner.

Thank you for your help. I will edit the exception_lists/packaging file, so that "llib-ldevcrypto" and "llib-ldevcrypto.ln" can be ignored.

What is the commitment level of the devcrypto library?  Is it internal

The commitment level of the devcrypto library is "private". (see PSARC 2010/199)

to ON only or are other consumers allowed to be using it?
It is not internal to ON only. The other consumers can use it, but not directly though.

The libdevcrypto library is an OpenSSL engine component to OpenSSL. It can be used only by an OpenSSL application through the OpenSSL dynamic engine support from the OpenSSL's libcrypto.so library. There are only 2 mandated global functions (bind_engine and v_check) in libdevcrypto.so. At the runtime, the OpenSSL dynamic engine will dlopen libdevcrypto library, find and call these global functions.
Thanks,
Huie-Ying
