FW: Re: openssl will block bacula into etch?
Hello,
Can you please do what is necessary to get openssl into testing? See
discussion below.
Bacula was removed from testing in February due to extreme bugginess.
This has been completely remedied in the version in unstable.
Thanks,
-- John

Any source that builds udebs is always frozen (openssl builds
libcrypto0.9.8-udeb). Udebs have to be moved into testing manualy and
without the freeze the source+deb and udeb versions would drift apart.
Another reason for this is so that the Debian-installer have a
consistent set of udebs to work with.
You have to ask -release to hint openssl in if the bacula change is
important.
