[Pkg-javascript-devel] Bug#895672: nodejs: modules can build using ssl 1.0 symbols but will fail at runtime

[Jérémy Lal]

Package: nodejs
Version: 8.11.1~dfsg-2
Severity: normal

I was building a module using openssl 1.0 (uws) and it doesn't fail
when compiling, but it fails at runtime:
uws_linux_57.node: undefined symbol: SSL_library_init

(the workaround is to just drop that call, but that's not the subject here).

I think the compilation should have failed instead.
