[New-bugs-announce] [issue21976] Fix test_ssl.py to handle LibreSSL versioning appropriately

[William Orr]

New submission from William Orr:

Currently, test_ssl.py requires the version information to match the OpenSSL format exactly, and to be less than 2.0. LibreSSL, a drop-in replacement for OpenSSL, has started its version numbers at 2.0.0, and reports it slightly differently. This patch addresses that.

Tested on Exherbo Linux amd64 with LibreSSL portable 2.0.1.
