Hi Jakub,

I have one question regarding the FIPS patch in
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/openssh.git/tree/openssh-6.7p1-fips.patch
:

I assume somewhere from within the OpenSSH code it should invoke
FIPS_set_mode API, but all I saw was FIPS_mode().
Does FIPS_mode() serve the same purposes as  FIPS_set_mode()?

Also the patch is for OpenSSH 7.0. Is there a patch for OpenSSH 6.6?

Thanks.
