[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#1011391: openssl: please support quictls patchset

[Jérémy Lal]

Package: openssl
Version: 3.0.3-5
Severity: wishlist

There is a patchset for quic protocol
https://github.com/quictls/openssl

Many softwares are starting to use that copy of openssl,
meaning their debian maintainers are going to need to
disable QUIC support explicitely to be able to link to
debian's openssl shared library.
Or, if the feature is so crucial that it cannot be disabled,
they will statically link to the embedded copy of openssl+quic.

Non-exhaustive list: curl, apache, nodejs.

It'd be nice, (and IMO soon to be critical), to either get openssl+quic
by default, or at least build an alternate +quic package.

I open this wishlist bug to be able to track information about this.
