As Daniel said, we cannot assume that libcurl was build with OpenSSL backend. We would need some way to detect this first. [Benjamin]: I agree. But if libcurl want to access ESXi by https. OpenSSL will be used. And libvirt must call CRYPTO_set_id_callback/CRYPTO_set_locking_callback to support multi-threads Also, wasn't there a license problem with OpenSSL and the (L)GPL? Can libvirt legally be used with a libcurl that is linked with OpenSSL? [Benjamin]: I think there is no open source license issue. We will not change libcurl or openssl source code. What we needed is to call openssl API(CRYPTO_set_id_callback/CRYPTO_set_locking_callback) to support multi-threads. -- Matthias Bolte http://photron.blogspot.com -- libvir-list mailing list libvir-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvir-list
