[05:56] <White_Light> Is it possible to relax the dependency on the header files from openssl 1.1.0g to 1.0.2g? Currently 16.04 and 17.10 cannot install mainline header files
[08:53] <apw> White_Light, presumably that dependency is there because the build related binaries in there are linked to openssl -- i assume that there is an abi break in the ssl library
[10:00] <mamarley> Yes, there is definitely an ABI break between OpenSSL 1.0.x and 1.1.x.
[17:21] <White_Light> that's a shame, I believe (relatively) a lot of people run those mainline builds on 16.04 and 17.10
[17:21] <White_Light> wish there would have been a heads up about that breakage
[19:39] <apw> White_Light, they are not really intended for anything other than testing, running them long term is not recommended
[19:43] <apw> White_Light, the problem with later kernels is they need to be built with later packages, which cause issues on the older releases
[21:24] <White_Light> apw, well they are a big reason why I stick to ubuntu, but I guess I'll just compile my own kernels now
