Hi Vagrant, this is no longer an issue. Debian FTP masters are now treating OpenSSL as a system library, which makes it GPL-compatible, see the discussion at https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2020/10/msg00165.html (with confirmation by Sean from the FTP team) A number of other components in Debian have already switched back to OpenSSL, e.g. MariaDB. Cheers, Moritz

See https://bugs.debian.org/928744 for more details on the issue. I've brought up the issue upstream a few times over the years, as several other targets are also blocked by this issue, and they'd be happy to accept patches to switch away from openssl, but nobody has done the work yet. live well, vagrant signature.asc Description: PGP signature

Package: u-boot Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, Support for the Helios4 NAS is available in u-boot 2019.01+dfsg-1, which is the version in buster. The version I've cross-compiled with a modified debian/targets works flawlessly with Debian installed sd-card images. A line similar to this will enable Helios4 u-boot. -->8-- armhf mvebu helios4 u-boot-spl.kwb --8<-- THNX && GRTNX, RobJE signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature
