Description of Problem: without the openssl-devel package (and the symlink, /usr/lib/libssl.so which points to /lib/libssl.so.0.9.6b), konqueror will fail to access any ssl enabled web site, instead popping up a dialog 'cant connect to host' or something like that. you can see it by going into konqueror settings, go to crypto section, go to openssl tab and click 'test' button. then install/remove openssl-devel package and try again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kde-2.2 from roswell How Reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. see above 2. 3. Actual Results: see above Expected Results: see above Additional Information:
Konqueror dlopen()s libssl.so - please move that file to the openssl base package, that's a much simpler fix than patching Konqueror to glob() /usr/lib/*ssl* and dlopen() the best match. Assigning to openssl
Structure sizes change between every release of OpenSSL. Binary compatibility is not guaranteed. Using dlopen() to demand-load libssl and get the addresses of functions it provides is all but guaranteed to break applications down the road, and moving the symlink from openssl-devel to openssl won't help then. Fix kssl. Punting back to kdelibs.
