+ * Fixed the symbolic link target for the changelog and copyright files. (LP: #2067672) Otherwise, this is straightforward and I am sponsoring to the noble SRU queue. However, in terms of SRU policy, I don't think it makes sense for us to release an SRU of openssl to all users' systems that changes only this. Therefore I am tagging this bug 'block-proposed-noble' so that it will not actually be released to noble-updates until there are further changes to be landed. ** Tags added: block-proposed-noble ** Description changed: [ Impact ] - * In OEM projects, our customers need check every copyright of - packages. + Due to the t64 transition, the changelog.Debian.gz and copyright + symlinks in various binary packages built from openssl source are + dangling symlinks, because /usr/share/doc/libssl3 no longer exists. + This gives users an error when trying to look at these files, and is an + impediment to inspecting the copyright status of the packages in an + installed system.
