For what it is worth, we consider OpenSSL a system library (aka, a "major component"), as does the FSF. >From GPLv2: However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable. Thus, we're not concerned about OpenSSL and GPL incompatibility. ~spot -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
