Comment 12 for bug 1861304

I see. There were changes related to OpenSSL 1.1 - see bug 1797386. I didn't realise libssl1.0-dev actually shipped original in Bionic. In that case, I think your report could be a valid regression report during Bionic's lifetime itself, so I'll adjust the bug metadata accordingly.

Unfortunately I'm not sure we can do anything about it now though, so I'll change the bug status to Won't Fix to reflect that we currently do not have any plan to change this. Further discussion welcome, but any concrete proposal needs to take the other implications into account.
