Comment 0 for bug 1945960

Hello,

As part of a rebuild against OpenSSL3, this package failed to build on one or
several architectures. You can find the details of the rebuild at

https://people.canonical.com/~schopin/rebuilds/openssl-3.0.0-impish.html

or for the amd64 failed build, directly at

https://launchpad.net/~schopin/+archive/ubuntu/openssl-3.0.0/+build/22099172/+files/buildlog_ubuntu-impish-amd64.net-snmp_5.9+dfsg-3ubuntu2.0~ssl3ppa1.1_BUILDING.txt.gz

We're planning to transition to OpenSSL 3.0 for the 22.04 release, and consider
this issue as blocking for this transition.

You can find general migration informations at
https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man7/migration_guide.html
For your tests, you can build against libssl-dev as found in the PPA
schopin/openssl-3.0.0

The issue has been reported upstream, without any resolution so far as the problem seems
to be with legacy algorithms support. Perhaps the proper fix would be to remove support
for those altogether from the package?
