Colin: I think I understand now much better; thanks. The upgrade to 1.0.1 increased the number of ciphers, which in turn broke communication with bad servers (of which there may be an important number). What a thorny little knot of a problem. Short of fixing these bad servers (which might be a hard and many-year problem), perhaps the only real solution is to have our clients sort the ciphers by security preference, and then attempt multiple connections. Obviously that's not a quick fix!
I see 1.0.1-4ubuntu5 has hit proposed, so I'll give that a try right now. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/986147 Title: openssl 1.0.1-4ubuntu2 breaks a bunch of ciphers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssl/+bug/986147/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
