Hi,

I'm not sure what you mean by this. In
https://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-security/2021-March/010380.html
it says

which I did. If openssl updated, would it not be logical to expect
openssl version information to indicate it had in fact been updated?

If not, then how am I able to tell that it has updated? On an
un-upgraded 12.2-p4 system *and* on an upgraded one, openssl version
reports 1.1.1h-freebsd
