I did write to them. Do you remember the Heartbleed vulnerability/bug? Right after OpenSSL issued a fix for it and OpenVPN upgraded their source code to 2.3.4, I wrote to both OpenBSD and Debian, asking them whether they would be upgrading their respective packages to match OpenVPN's version (2.3.4). Up till now there has been no reply from them. Fortunately our dear friend Samuli issued an upgraded package for Debian and Ubuntu users. It is version 2.3.4 and is still available at OpenVPN site. A few days ago I asked about Debian's old version on this mailing list as I thought some of you guys might know why Debian has not upgraded its package. I was just being curious. As I said earlier, Samuli has compiled and created 2.3.4 packages for Debian and Ubuntu users right after he uploaded the Windows installers. > Can you please explain why are you asking here ? Very good question and I am happy to answer it. I was just being curious. Before I asked the question here on this mailing list, I did write to the maintainers with OpenBSD and Debian. And since I did not receive replies from them, I thought some of you here might know why. As I wrote earlier I have no problem getting 2.3.4 package for Debian as Samuli compiled and created it for Debian/Ubuntu users. I was curious as to why Debian Jessie is still keeping the 2.3.2 version. Regards.
