The SSL linkage was solved (simply for the moment) by leaving out postgresql, SNMP agent support, EAP/TLS and x.99 token support, and build-conflicting against libssl-dev. I plan to go back and try and convert what I can to libgcrypt/libgnutls, and upgrade to libsnmp5 support. (This last one is what keeps _me_ using a local build. :-( PostgreSQL requires license changes, and I've not had much luck buiding impetus for this, nor even identified an exact change that would be needed. As for the debian/ directory in CVS, it's not been touched in a while since it's pretty much built cleanly and happily for that long. Once Steve Langasek is satisfied with my package, I'll be pulling those changes back into CVS. (As seen at http://www.tbble.com/freeradius/) There's no packages on ftp.freeradius.org since (a) I don't have access to update that site; and (b) it never occurred to me to put them there or ask for such to be done. I've been gunning for archive re-entry instead. > [1] http://www.debian.org/News/weekly/2003/02/ -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, MCSE 6th year CompSci/Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Anu.edu.au "No survivors?
