Re: Bacula and OpenSSL (original) (raw)

Wow is that confused.

OpenSSL certainly "accompanies" genuinely fundamental components of the system; it's status in Debian is that it's as "fundamental" as apt, and significantly more fundamental than any windowing system, which is explicitly listed as an example of a "fundamental component" in the GPLv3.

Agreed, and with the rest of Anthony's analysis. It may not have been true a few releases ago but things change and it's definitely fundamental in etch and will be included in all Debian releases and installations in the foreseeable future. It has to be explicitly removed from even a minimal installation and doing so has some serious implications.

Thanks,
