Hello,

as you maybe noticed, Fedora 26 upgraded OpenSSL to 1.1.0b version
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/OpenSSL110>. This version breaks API
and causes many packages to fail to build or to work
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1383740>.

I gathered all these failures noticed durig the weekly Perl bootstrap
<https://ppisar.fedorapeople.org/perl_rebuild/scratch/latest/index.xhtml> and
reported them into Bugzilla. perl-Net-SSLeay and perl-IO-Socket-SSL were
ready for the change thanks to active upstream. But many other OpenSSL
bindings had to be fixed by myself.

I also noticed that it's necessary to rebuild all of the packages to make sure
only one OpenSSL library version is used in a process. Otherwise programs
can crash
<https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/de...@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/6GI3QOVCYMLCJH67PY7TUUFMJRZEKJLG/>.
Therefore I rebuilt all Perl packages that were linked to the old library.

Current status is all the Perl packages (I know about) are fixed. The only
exception is perl-AnyEvent
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1390468> that fails
a multi-thread test. I hope this one will be corrected in reasoanble time.

Enjoy new OpenSSL that's getting a security fix today
