Bug#568039: ITP: gatling -- a small, high performance http and ftp server

[Roland Stigge <stigge@antcom.de>]

Hi,

is there any progress in packaging gatling for Debian? Otherwise I could
help packaging.

Regarding the license (OpenSSL vs. GPL), you can find in gatling.1:

"LICENSE
       GPLv2 (see http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html) with an
exception to allow linking against openssl."

I consider this as an extension to the file LICENSE.

(@Alex:) Further, I doubt that tlsgatling currently just not building
against our /usr/lib/libcrypto.a is related to the OpenSSL vs. GPL
issue. libcrypto.a's obj_dat.o references __ctype_b_loc etc. from glibc,
which is not available in dietlibc which (tls)gatling tries to link
with. So we somehow need to offer a dietlibc version of libssl (maybe
just for the gatling build process).

Thanks for considering,

bye,
  Roland
