Hi,

When running lintian on openbsc, I get the following error:

 E: osmocom-bsc-nat: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl
 E: osmocom-nitb: possible-gpl-code-linked-with-openssl

It seems like openbsc is being linked with libcrypto from OpenSSL, but I cannot
find any statement of OpenSSL exception for the AGPL. Debian policy requires
this.

Can you look into this? You can have a look at wget if you need an example.

Ruben
