This also includes the openssl-devel package. This is an upstream security and bugfix release. The Cygwin release is the vanilla version, no additional patches. === NOTE === NOTE === NOTE === The compatibility package openssl097 will not be updated anymore and its usage is deprecated. If you're still using any application relying on openssl 0.9.7, consider updating or rebuilding to a new version which depends on openssl 0.9.8. None of the packages in the Cygwin net distribution is built against openssl 0.9.7 anymore. Official release message: ======================================================================= OpenSSL version 0.9.8e and 0.9.7m released ========================================== OpenSSL - The Open Source toolkit for SSL/TLS http://www.openssl.org/ The OpenSSL project team is pleased to announce the release of version 0.9.8e of our open source toolkit for SSL/TLS.

For a complete list of changes, please see http://www.openssl.org/source/exp/CHANGES. The 0.9.8e release includes RFC3779 support and several cipher selection bugfixes. We also release 0.9.7m, which is the first full release of OpenSSL which can be linked against the validated FIPS 1.1.1 module. We consider OpenSSL 0.9.8e to be the best version of OpenSSL available and we strongly recommend that users of older versions upgrade as soon as possible. OpenSSL 0.9.8e is available for download via HTTP and FTP from the following master locations (you can find the various FTP mirrors under http://www.openssl.org/source/mirror.html): * http://www.openssl.org/source/ * ftp://ftp.openssl.org/source/ For those who want or have to stay with the 0.9.7 series of OpenSSL, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to OpenSSL 0.9.7m as soon as possible.
