The bundled openssl in opae worries me still, but that's not causing

I think FESCo should create a strict policy on bundling cryptographic
libraries.
Well bundling a binary from upstream is already against policy
so I don't see how that helps.
The problem isn't a lack of policy, it's that the packager didn't
notice those files or didn't realise they weren't allowed.
So the opae-2.0.0 tarball has libcrypto embedded-in what is the process
now ?
This stuff is used for a Python tool that is used to sign some binary,
almost certainly there is absolutely no reason to bundle libcrypto, the
tool should probably be unbundled and turned into a regular python
module opae depends on.
It has an openssl.py that dlopen's the so:
def _find_openssl_so(self, version, *paths):
candidates = list(paths)
crypto = util.find_library('crypto')
if crypto:
candidates.insert(0, crypto)
for c in candidates:
dll = CDLL(c)
So that might already find the system one if you have it
but probably only if you have openssl-devel installed to
get the .so link with no version.
But dropping the binaries and doing a relatively minor
patch to that is likely all that is needed.
Do we know who is the current maintainer?
The changelog seem to imply Intel dropped it into Fedora and never
maintained it after Sep 17 2020 ...
Well src.fpo says trix aka Tom Rix is the maintainer.
