Raw message 

Yesterday we had a critical system crash on our grase server so we had to replace it.
The sysadmin installed Debian wheezy (debian 7) instead of Ubuntu, and now we can't install grase because it depends on a to old libssl package.
The only way i could make it install was to rebuild the package.

This is exactly what I complained about several times last year. Only this time it's the other way around.
