Reached this point i think GNOME should make a decision on what crypto
library is it going to use/bless:
evolution is using libnss
gnome-keyring will using libgcrypt/libgnutls
gnome-vfs can use openssl or libgcrypt/libgnutls
Under certain circumstances gnome can be using the three libraries!
I think gnome should choose on of the libraries and stick to it instead
of using the three of them.
Just my two cents.
Cheers,
Diego
