That was pretty much the response I expected. But when filing such a bug report one always hopes that the maintainer or upstream developer will have some secret knowledge that allows an easy fix. Is GNUTLS any better in this regard? I won't rule out the possibility of submitting a patch to replace openssl with gnutls if you would be willing to accept it. NB I'm not making any commitment to write such a patch, I'm overloaded at the moment and most things I want to do don't get done. -- russ...@coker.com.au http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Main Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
