Hi guys,

Any place where this API change is documented ?

It would be nice if each release came with a list of API changes.

Hi,

It seems that the OpenSSL guys have managed to slip an API change inside
their latest "patchlevel" release and this unsurprisingly breaks our RSA
engine...

This impact all users who upgrade to OpenSSL 1.0.2f and will cause smtpd
to crash as soon as the RSA engine is used (ie: whenever there's crypto)

A quick workaround is to not upgrade to 1.0.2f yet and maybe ask OpenSSL
why a "patchlevel" release contains more than patches.

Meanwhile, we're investigating how we're going to unfuck this.
