Mainly that protocol-based compile-time variability was already there. But i agree that it would make sense to have support for RPKI without SSH transport / libssh dependency, and i already got some requests for that. So perhaps we will update that. > I am asking, because I am building BIRD for a hardware router platform > (Ubiquiti's EdgeRouters) and including libssh is, although doable, a real > pain-in-the-rear, depending on the OS version and hardware architecture (4 > variants in the EdgeOS world at the moment). Isn't EdgeOS based on Debian? So i suppose there should not be problem with libssh / libgcrypt there. But last time i played with EdgeRouter i just dropped whole EdgeOS and used vanilla Debian with Ubiquiti EdgeRouter Linux kernel. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santi...@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
