So, I figured out: It's part of libopie. libpam-opie doesn't use the included libopie, though; in fact, the clean target does an "rm -rf" on it. (Not a very friendly thing to do; I had just spent some time replacing all the offending code in there!) Anyhow, the offending code is in the opie source package, so I'm reassigning. I've found appropriate replacement code, and it looks easy enough to slot in; expect a patch soon. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Don't ask me why, but it does.

Any progress on this? Reimplementing the offending code would probably just be a few hours (including also fixing the code to write to the wtmp, although perhaps the advertising clause could be removed since Berkeley announced it could be removed for their software a few years ago?), but there's no point if you're replacing the code anyhow. /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Hi Michael, Is anything being done about this bug? It looks like someone needs to replace the RSA md5 implementation with one of the GPL-compatible ones, correct? -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
