It might give people the idea that we ever supported it. We never claimed to support LibreSSL. Even more, we've broadcasted more than once [0,1,2] that we do *not* support libressl. But I can't really blame you for assuming we did. We can't expect everyone to follow the mailing list. In hindsight, we should have immediately added a patch like I recently submitted, to leave no doubt about the state of our LibreSSL support. (Though I'd also like to defend ourselves a bit, LibreSSL lured us into this mess by pretending to be OpenSSL-compatible.) > Steffan Karger: When the introduced block > in 0e8a30c0b05c1e2b59a1dea0a6eab5daa1d9d9a1 really is 'not really > needed', can we add a additional ifdef arround it to make it build > with libressl? This block is needed if the linked crypto lib does not support the API we expect, namely the OpenSSL 1.1 API. If LibreSSL claims to implement the OpenSSL API, they should do so. I don't have time to figure out how they subtly broke the build this week. (Yes, I think OpenSSL's choice to use macro's is bad design. But that is the API we do support.) -Steffan [0] https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg09221.html [1] https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg11272.html [2] https://www.mail-archive.com/openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net/msg15295.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot _______________________________________________ Openvpn-devel mailing list Openvpn-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/openvpn-devel
