I haven't been able to find any discussion about this on either freebsd-ports, freebsd-ports-bugs, or freebsd-security. There doesn't seem to be a PR, either. Am I just being overly sensitive or does this present a POLA problem? My ports tree is up to date, but OpenSSL can't be upgraded, and neither can anything that depends on it. =20 If a port is going to be deprecated, isn't it common to recommend a replacement? If 0.9.8l_1 is so horribly broken, would it have been better to drop back to the 'last known good' version? I haven't had a problem with 0.9.8l, that I know of. --=20 John D.
