IMHO this is not the case on SuSE 7.1 (my Linux distr. as well).
The error "undefined symbol: EVP_rc5_32_12_16_ofb" is raised during
import M2Crypto if one does not take the announced requirement for
SWIG _1.3.6_ serious and one trys to build M2Crypto with swig
1.3u-20010119-1229 (Alpha 5) which is shipped with SuSE 7.1. Yeah, I
was also pretty close to submitting a M2Crypto bug report but then
downloaded SWIG 1.3.6... ;-)
That's what I don't like about SWIG: The build seems to work
smoothly and _something_ fails afterwards.
Ciao, Michael.
