Can I recompile ssh with the latest openssl (stable) 0.9.8l (security issue)? I guess I have to tell ssh where to find the newly installed ssl library?
Thanks for any help or feedback about this you could have
the old version of openssl got removed with the upgrade, and the new version took its place.
While I am not sure, if rebuild in necessary, ssh will for sure take the new library (read shared libs) if it gets restarted (at latest after a reboot).
So if you are really paranoid, do a rebuild of ssh, and reboot.
