Hi all,

It OpenVPN 2.3.3 requires libpkcs11-helper 1.11 or newer. What this
means is that unless I patch the OpenVPN sources I won't be able to
provide Debian/Ubuntu packages with pkcs11 support except for Ubuntu
14.04 which has 1.11 in default repos.

So, is anyone using pkcs11 with the Debian packages I've provided? If
not, I will simply remove pkcs11 support and be done with it. I could
patch the openvpn sources to allow an older libpkcs11, but I'm not sure
if that would cause problems elsewhere.

I have not yet used pkcs11, but it is on my list to switch to tokens once some other issues are resolved.

I use debian on RPI. Currently a custom build, but I hope to switch back to the packages once they catch up to git (+ a not-yet-developed bugfix).
