[Spacewalk-list] Agent issue on Debian 8.10

[Ben Myatt]

Hi,

This was a known bug.
https://github.com/pimutils/vdirsyncer/issues/258 <https://github.com/pimutils/vdirsyncer/issues/258> 

What version of python-openssl are you using? I’m presuming version 0.14-1

Fix is to uninstall your current version of python-openssl and install it from the Jessie backports repo because you get a newer version. 
Add to /etc/apt/sources.list:
deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian jessie-backports main

apt-cache showpkg python-openssl
Package: python-openssl
Versions: 
16.0.0-1~bpo8+1 (/var/lib/apt/lists/ftp.debian.org_debian_dists_jessie-backports_main_binary-amd64_Packages) (/var/lib/dpkg/status)


Kind Regards
Ben
