  OTP-19173 Application(s): ssh
               Related Id(s): PR-8310

               With this change, robustness is improved by monitoring

               Include more information in logging of SNI (Server Name
               Indication) mismatch error.

I almost always see this sentence when a new release’s available, but I don’t understand its meaning: `The xxxx application can be applied independently of other...`

What does it mean?  
Thanks

It means that, if you want to, you can [patch](https://www.erlang.org/doc/system/otp-patch-apply.html) only the ftp application without updating any other application in Erlang/OTP as long as you are running on an Erlang/OTP 26 system.

As another example you can see [https://erlangforums.com/t/patch-package-otp-25-3-2-13-released/](https://erlangforums.com/t/patch-package-otp-25-3-2-13-released/), where it sais:

> [@Patch Package OTP 25.3.2.13 Released](https://erlangforums.com/t/patch-package-otp-25-3-2-13-released/3816/1):
>
> ```erlang
> Note! The erts-13.2.2.10 application *cannot* be applied

> 
> On a full OTP 25 installation, also the following runtime

> -- stdlib-4.1 (first satisfied in OTP 25.1)
> 
> ```

Here if you want to update to erts-13.2.2.10, you also have to update kernel and stdlib to the specified version.

All of this is also tracked in the [`runtime_dependencies`](https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/kernel/app.html#runtime_dependencies) field in the `.app` file.
