OPENSSL UPGRADE UNBLOCKED AFTER UPSTREAM FIX

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Arch Linux

The rsync-ssl blocker that's been holding back OpenSSL updates across infrastructure is finally resolved, clearing the path for security patches.

Infrastructure has been deliberately ignoring OpenSSL upgrades due to a broken rsync-ssl dependency, but both the rsync [1] and OpenSSL [1] upstream issues have shipped fixes. This unblock comes paired with a critical nginx configuration fix [2]: Let's Encrypt switched to their Generation Y intermediates last week, creating a longer certificate chain that exceeds nginx's default verification depth of one. The dbscripts team deployed the depth fix [3] yesterday to restore mirrorauth validation on archlinux.org. With both the certificate chain issue [2] and the rsync-ssl blocker [4] resolved, the infrastructure team can now drop the OpenSSL upgrade ignore [5]. The main release train also pushed five package updates [6] [7] [8] [9] [10], including radicale 3.7.5, python-distributed 2026.6.0, and tig's graduation from testing to stable. Finishing the stack: mypy reached v2 in alpm dependencies [11].
