Would it be best to just restart your system after an upgrade? In the
version of the book I have, it said something about an Xorg Server
dependency being OpenSSL (thats why I install it right before Xorg).

 Whoops, that is badly WRONG.  At lwn.net [ thread
https://lwn.net/Articles/593683/ - might be subscriber only ]
someone suggests running this after the upgrade :

grep -l 'libssl.*deleted' /proc/*/maps | tr -cd 0-9\\n | xargs -r ps u
(as root)

 On my current desktop machine that shows the following :
root  2206  0.0  0.0  37016  1260 ?Ss   Apr06   0:00 
/usr/sbin/cupsd -C /etc/cups/cupsd.
root  2416  0.0  0.0  27736   512 ?Ss   Apr06   0:00 
/usr/lib/postfix/master -w
postfix   2418  0.0  0.0  27968   668 ?SApr06   0:00 qmgr -l -t 
unix -u
ken   2828  0.0  5.8 1384924 232188 ?  Sl   Apr06   1:37 
/usr/lib/libreoffice/program/soffic

 So in my desktop case I need to bounce cups and postfix, and also
to close my current LO documents.

 With the instructions used in recent versions of BLFS (in
particular, shared libraries), just drop it over the top.  If you
are _serving_ anything which links to openssl then you will need to
bounce those services (i.e. stop them and restart them).  For a
desktop, I guess that closing the browser(s) and reopening those
should be sufficient.

I don't know of any packages in BLFS that use the static libraries by 
default or our instructions.  Some users may, however have done that for 
themselves.

If any application was compiled with static openssl library, you have
to recompile app in addition to installing a new shared lib/static.

openssl is a package one generally installs  early in the distribution-build 
process.   To upgrade to say openssl-1.0.1g
--(a)  does one need to yank out the old say openssl-1.0.1 and install the new 
1,0,1g and if so would there not be breakages?  OR
--(b) can one install openssl-1.0.1g over the old version  of  say  
openssl-1.0.1 ?

advice from anyone on list will be much appreciated

sincerely
