Yeah. Not very smart. I intended to merge it with 846543.

The bug was created and it was mentioned that this package needs changes in
order to get it compiled against the new openssl ABI which is in experimental.
Your upload of the "fixed" package was performed on 2016-10-30 and was built
against openssl 1.0.2. So even if you would have done nothing, your package
would been built successfully *but* against a 1.0.2. The test should have been
done against the version in experimental.
On 2016-11-01 openssl 1.1.0 was uploaded to unstable. From this point in time
your package would have fail to build. So I *think* the change in the CFLAGS
is a nop.

So the bug was created because the package did not compile against openssl
1.1.0 and now #846543 was created which mostly a dupe of this one.

That means you have a valid RC bug which should be solved in order to get this
package ready for the release and I mentioned two options people are doing.
Most of what I wrote is from the transition bug #827061. The libssl1.0-dev is
provided by openssl 1.0.2 and is intended to provide the 1.0.2 API for package
which can't be fixed in time for release.
