I’ll include the maintainer of record for gnutls*, since it looks like we’re a bit behind on that—and there’s even a 3.4.x series. Clearly, if a package is going to be restricted from binary redistribution if OpenSSL is used, then gnutls is the way to go. If licensing isn’t an issue, OpenSSL has a smaller dependency tree, so my inclination is to prefer it in such cases to cut down on user carping. -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ Fink-devel mailing list Fink-devel@lists.sourceforge.net List archive: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.devel Subscription management: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/fink-devel
