[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#363516: something obvious

[Christian Perrier]

Quoting Jean-Yves Lefort (jylefort at brutele.be):
> The ssleay_rand_add() change was fairly idiotic. Even with no

> 
> the only remaining use of the buf parameter is:
> 
> 	buf=(const char *)buf + j;
> 
> That is, the buf parameter becomes unused. This is a clear indication
> that the person who made the change had no idea of what he was doing.
