It is a most interesting point because it explain why the R binary installed from epel for RH7.1 and family isn’t linked to openssl. If they don’t have a rock solid argument, and even if they have, there may not be anymore official R packages from big league binary distros. Unless they patch R, their legal arm will forbid it.
So either they will stop distribute R or they will patch en-masse. If they don’t patch, you may still be able to find a R package for your distro but it won’t be approved by the distro.
