Just a heads up... Debian cannot distribute squid versions linked with openssl due to the openssl licence having issues with GPL programs - unless those programs include an 'exception' in their licence statement. (Other ssl enabled GPL projects have done this). As I understand it this affects redhat suse etc etc as well. (It also includes appliances running squid for obvious reasons).
We have three basic options: 1) Ignore it - appliances can't ship with ssl support, distros can't ship with ssl support, but users can rebuild their squids if they need. 2) Get squid working with GnuTLS which is meant to be an almost-dropin replacement for openssl. They apparently have compatability headers even. 3) Get permission from all copyright holders on squid to add an openssl exception. (I grant my permission). I suspect 2) is the only feasible way to go... Rob -- GPG key available at: <http://www.robertcollins.net/keys.txt>.
