From: Phil Howard <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> phil-openssl-users> While diagnosing why the compilation of phil-openssl-users> openssl-0.9.6c blew up on a "linux-sparcv8" phil-openssl-users> platform, I found that in the Configure script, phil-openssl-users> some linux platforms simply don't have any table phil-openssl-users> data for shared libraries at all.

To answer that last question: yes, or noone has felt safe enough to make a professional guess. phil-openssl-users> Is this something I can supply patches for to phil-openssl-users> developers? Or is this data compiled into this phil-openssl-users> form (in the %table array in Configure) from phil-openssl-users> somewhere else? A patch of the correct %table entry in Configure is what we need. phil-openssl-users> I'm also curious why the RC4_CHAR setting for phil-openssl-users> sparc. Is that due to alignment limitations? Possibly, or speed (I dunno, that's inherited from SSLeay). -- Richard Levitte \ Spannvägen 38, II \ [EMAIL PROTECTED] Redakteur@Stacken \ S-168 35 BROMMA \ T: +46-8-26 52 47 \ SWEDEN \ or +46-733-72 88 11 Procurator Odiosus Ex Infernis -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Member of the OpenSSL development team: http://www.openssl.org/ Software Engineer, GemPlus: http://www.gemplus.com/ Unsolicited commercial email is subject to an archival fee of $400.
