> I appreciate that information. Do you still support RHEL7? Well, in some sense *I* only support Shibboleth period and I'm the sole maintainer left for this, so...I wouldn't be using it unless you're prepared to join the project. That's just reality now. Xerces is all but dead and if that eventually officially goes to the attic, this code goes with it by definition.
Having said that, yes, the code supports RHEL7 until such time as it sunsets next year for free support. At that point, my project drops it officially and so does my willingness to support it here. Having said *that*, Amazon Linux 2 is based on RHEL7 and it sunsets a year after RHEL7 so I'm stuck supporting that for another year and it's likely that supporting one implies the other. Support in this context really amounts to what fixes I would be willing to do new releases for if something arose. > The openssl installed on RHEL7 and RHEL8 is different so I need to find one > that will work on both for now until we can stop supporting our SW on > RHEL7. The 2.x code works with the versions of OpenSSL dating back to the one shipped with RHEL7 and up through 3.1, it has build support for all of them and does not use any newer APIs exclusively. In fact, it depends on deprecated methods and will eventually break on a future version and it's probably unlikely that gets fixed by me. I don't recall specifically how far back the support goes in terms of what physically builds and runs but if RHEL 7 is still on 1.0.2, then it definitely works back that far, and that's probably the limit. -- Scott
