1 Referring to Mateusz Neumann's post:
2 > revdep-rebuild --soname libssl.so.0.9.6
3 > revdep-rebuild --soname libssl.so.0.9.7

5 When I run revdep-rebuild, it says "Checking dynamic linking...".
6 Aren't packages that are dynamically linked ones that don't require a
7 recompile? I though that was the whole point of dynamic linking...

9 So how does one find what is *statically* compiled against a specific
10 version? I asked this the last time there was an openssl vuln, and got
11 no answer besides that there are no easy answers! In the case of
12 openssl, be aware that if you run apache-1.x and use mod_ssl, you will
13 need to recompile mod_ssl after you've updated openssl.

15 But are there others?
