Bug Description

This upstream issue https://github.com/hbons/SparkleShare/issues/1855 has got a bugfix release 1.5.1 which enables the migration from OpenSSL 1.0.x to OpenSSL 1.1.x. It fixes the password digesting algorithm to md5 for Sparkleshare versions <2. It should be considered for Ubuntu which uses releases <2.

Ubuntu 16.04 to 17.10:
$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.2g 1 Mar 2016

Ubuntu 18.04:
$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.0g 2 Nov 2017

The OpenSSL update breaks existing encrypted Sparkleshare repositories.
