In your initial post you've asked for OpenSSL-1.0.1pMike7 wrote:Oxdawg-
What's the difference between openssl-1.0.1p-i586 and openssl-1.0.1p-i486? -x86 suffixes describe the chipset architecture the software was compiled upon. In your case an -i586 does match for your Atom N270.
Is anything besides openssl dependent on the openssl solibs? No. Dependency checker didn't report of missing dependencies.
(I really don't understand how openssl works and am just trying to make my system as secure as possible. I especially don't want to do anything that's going to screw up my OS or that isn't easily reversible.)
From my understanding the latest OpenSSL-version is rather a little more important when running a server. Clientwise it's also important but an up-to-date browser prevents from compromising your system.
Besides I have my PupSaveConfig set to +0 (ask at shutdown), this way I can test whatever I've installed on-the-fly before saving it. If anything doesn't work properly (last time it was OscarTalks Tor-browser package) I just don't save it.

Could be I'm wrong with any-/everything I've posted so I am not gonna answer on this specific topic anymore .. 'cause I'm a novice user nor hacker // guru
