[pkg-ntp-maintainers] Bug#446710: ntpd won't start up due to upgraded libssl

[Ian McDonald]

Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.4p3+dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable


Recently libssl0.9.8 was upgraded to 0.9.8f-1

When this happenned the following occured in the logs:
Oct 15 14:03:28 jandi3 ntpd[3848]: ntpd 4.2.4p3 at 1.1502-o Mon Aug 13
16:20:18 UTC 2007 (1)
Oct 15 14:03:28 jandi3 ntpd[3848]: ntpd: OpenSSL version mismatch. Built
against 90805f, you have 908070

and ntpd failed to start.

Solved (temporarily) by downgrading to libssl0.9.8 version 0.9.8e-9.
