Dear Christoph Martin,

    Hi.  This is imacat from Taiwan.  I saw that you are the maintainer
of Debian OpenSSL.

    I have a machine that installs Debian Etch for some reason.  It
comes with OpenSSL 0.9.8c.  And I override it with OpenSSL 0.9.8d I
compiled from source from the OpenSSL official website.  Now all the
Debian binary packages depending on libssl generates a warning:

imacat at atlas ~ % wget --version
wget: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8: no version information available (required by wget)
wget: /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8: no version information available (required by wget)
GNU Wget 1.10.2
...

    I'm very confused since I have many cron jobs that's using wget, etc. 
These warnings filled up my mailbox.

    I tried to investigate this issue.  It seems that somewhere in the
Debian patch openssl_0.9.8c-4.diff.gz makes the difference.  OpenSSL
0.9.8c without the patch generate the same warnings.  But I couldn't go
further on this.  I'm avoiding to re-compile everything referring to
Debian OpenSSL, that is, wget, etc.

    Could you tell me how I can avoid this warning?  Which part of this
patch caused this?  Where can I find a clue on this?  Or is it a bug
that should be filed upon Debian OpenSSL?

    Thank you in advance.
