[Bug 1784796] Re: apt update fails - 'std::runtime_error' what(): random_device::__x86_rdrand(void)

Any recommendation how to update if you can't update due to this bug? "apt update" will always fail, so no matter if it's a kernel or apt update I need, I won't get it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu.

2015-04-26 Thread Hanno Böck
Public bug reported: tlsdate sets the time based on a TLS timestamp from a TLS server. The tlsdate tool comes preconfigured with the server www.ptb.de. However that server now randomizes the timestamp, possibly causing lots of trouble. A possibility to fix this would be to use www.google.com. As

Stepped over this one recently, there's a fine working gnutls-version of vpnc available in upstreams svn, though no release. I'd suggest Ubuntu makes a package of vpnc from the svn snapshot (Gentoo does so), development seems quite inactive so probably no release soon. -- vpnc with Hybrid-Auth
