Hi,
just noticed that on Noble the following openssl pkg contents are still
pointing to contents from libssl3 instead of libssl3t64:
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2025-02-05 13:17 ./usr/share/doc/openssl/changelog.Debian.gz -> ../libssl3/changelog.Debian.gz
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2025-02-05 13:17 ./usr/share/doc/openssl/changelog.gz -> ../libssl3/changelog.gz
lrwxrwxrwx root/root 0 2025-02-05 13:17 ./usr/share/doc/openssl/copyright -> ../libssl3/copyright
+
+ ================================================================================
+
+ [ Impact ]
+
+ * Users can't read the changelog and copyright files.
+
+ * The fix is to symlink to correct location in libssl3t64
+
+ [ Test Plan ]
+
+ * Try to read the file, it should fail because it is linking to
+ incorrect path.
+
+ ❯ /usr/bin/cat /usr/share/doc/openssl/copyright
+ /usr/bin/cat: /usr/share/doc/openssl/copyright: No such file or directory
+
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+
+ * I can't think of a scenario where this change will break something.
+
+ [ Other Info ]
+
+ * None
+
