Given that... I suspect it would be a really helpful thing if a couple of
our non-US folks focused on getting at least *some* version of the various
crypto-based packages (particularly OpenSSL and OpenSSH) useable. I'm still
slowly hammering away at getting the entire list of Essential and those
Required/Important packages which are present in a default install done,
though much of what remains in Essential will require some local patches
until they're sent upstream.
Speaking of which - could someone check at least the patch for GCC into the
staging area? If so, I will happily build an updated set of compiler tools
(right now, I'm running into various weirdnesses, and having gdb and such
would help a lot; I also have a bug filed against libreadline4 which, when
resolved, should enable a bunch of things).
