Changes:
freeswan (1.98b-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Removed dependency on libssl to finally get the package into
unstable again. As it turned out, freeswan does not necessarily need
libssl to compile, because the libdes library is contained in the
freeswan source code. According to the CREDITS file in the upstream
source, Eric Young (the author of libdes) gave explicit permission to
include it in the source code. Therefore, license conflicts should no
longer be a problem.
The freeswan package depends on openssl only because the postinst
script needs its binaries for the automatic creation of X.509
certificates (for authentication); the openssl library is not linked
into the freeswan binaries.
However, future version of the Debian package of freeswan might again
use openssl (respectively libssl) instead of the included libdes for
two reasons:
1. Security bugs might get fixed quicker in the openssl package than in
the freeswan package (nothing said about upstream....).
2. Dynamic linking and shared libraries are generally a good thing (TM).
