The specific versioned dependency for openssl is generated when the package is built. Since we rebuild packages when we backport them, znc would be built against the correct version of openssl.
However, we only backport packages that are already in the Ubuntu archive. Since version 0.096 is not yet available, we can't backport it currently. However, you're welcome to file a separate bug against the znc package in Ubuntu requesting that upgrade. In the mean time, I'm going to reformat this bug slightly to reflect the version tweak, etc. ** Summary changed: - Please backport ZNC 0.096 to Lucid + Please backport znc 0.096 from Maverick to Lucid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to lucid-backports. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/689064 Title: Please backport znc 0.096 from Maverick to Lucid -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
