I did:\r\n\r\npackages.yaml:\r\n```\r\n    openssl:\r\n        paths:\r\n            openssl@system: /usr\r\n        buildable: False```\r\n```\r\nSo far so good.  Now when I install something that uses OpenSSL, I get a spurious warning.  The good news is, everything seems to basically work. But the warning does look ominous (and I'm 99% sure it's totally spurious).\r\n\r\n```\r\n[spack]$ spack install py-scipy ^python@3.5.1 ^netlib-lapack+shared ^netlib-blas+fpic\r\n==> Warning: This installation depends on an old version of OpenSSL, which may have known security issues. \r\n==> Warning: Consider updating to the latest version of this package.\r\n==> Warning: More details at http://www.openssl.org\r\n```\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/LLNL/spack/issues/comments/203677379","html_url":"https://github.com/LLNL/spack/issues/647#issuecomment-203677379","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/LLNL/spack/issues/647","id":203677379,"user":{"login":"alalazo","id":4199709,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4199709?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo","html_url":"https://github.com/alalazo","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/alalazo/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-03-30T23:12:05Z","updated_at":"2016-03-30T23:12:05Z","body":"@mathstuf @citibeth  If we agree on the version tag `@system` (which is fine with me), then I think we should really handle it as a special case.
