OpenSSL ABI has been fairly stable within a given series.
Something compiled against 1.1.0a (Sep 2016) has a fair chance of running on a system that has 1.1.0l (Aug 2021). 5 years of binary compatibility is nothing to be sniffed at for a C library.

- marcosdumay 5y agoFunny because I've seen incompatible changes twice on this timeframe. The last one I remember. It was moving the API that did version negotiation from recommended to deprecated and then removed status. But yeah, the API itself didn't change. All that changed is the recommended way to interact with the library, and the old one removed.
