[Bug 1596831] Re: Ubuntu 12.04_5 LTS and openSSL 1.0.1 EOL

Support for version 1.0.1 will cease on 2016-12-31. No further releases
of 1.0.1 will be made after that date. Security fixes only will be
applied to 1.0.1 until then.

How is Ubuntu going to deal with that? Both Precise and Trusty currently
have 1.0.1 versions, and both Ubuntu releases have a target life time
beyond that date.
