Hi, in Debian/unstable (and probably elsewhere) support for SSLv3 has been dropped: SSLv3\_method(), SSLv3\_server\_method(), SSLv3\_client\_method() are no longer available. This leads to build failures with at least bro and broccoli (see [https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=804104](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=804104)). What should SSLv3\_method() in SSL\_CTX\_new(SSLv3\_method()) be replaced with? Would SSLv23\_method() which is still available and (according to the OpenSSL documentation) means support for SSLv2, 3 and TLSv1, 1.1, 1.2 appropriate? Cheers, -Hilko ---
