Hi,

Yesterday I noticed that the build of recipe nettle 2.7.1 from release Fido fails:
https://gist.github.com/leon-anavi/dfd3afab567a9dc9fa2f

The build machine is with Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty Tahr). I am build Poky with nettle for qemux86-64.

My investigation shows that nettle fails due to a couple of security fixes (CVE-2015-8804, CVE-2015-8803 and CVE-2015-8805) which have been applied to branch Fido recently:
https://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/tree/meta/recipes-support/nettle/nettle_2.7.1.bb?h=fido#n13

The same patches are present in Jethro but the versions of nettle in Jethro and Fido are different. The version in Fido is 2.7.1. Jethro has recipes for both 2.7.1 and 3.1.1. As far as I can see in Jethro the patches are applied only for version 3.1.1.Therefore in my opinion these patches are for a newer versions of nettle and they are not compatible with version 2.7.1 from release Fido.

Could you please have a look and let me know if I am doing something wrong or if this is a bug that can be fixed for release Fido?

Best regards, Leon
