This is not a bug in ssl-cert. It's a bug in libapache2-mod-auth- mellon, more specifically in the way it configures openssl to generate its certificate. From /usr/sbin/mellon_create_metadata:
cat >"$TEMPLATEFILE" <<EOF RANDFILE = /dev/urandom [req] default_bits = 3072 default_keyfile = privkey.pem distinguished_name = req_distinguished_name prompt = no policy = policy_anything [req_distinguished_name] commonName = $HOST EOF The fix is simple: just remove the RANDFILE entry from the snippet above. This looks like SRU material, so I'm adding a task for the package and setting its status accordingly. ** Also affects: libapache2-mod-auth-mellon (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: libapache2-mod-auth-mellon (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: ssl-cert (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: hplip (Ubuntu Jammy) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1945774 Title: openssl: breaks ssl-cert installation: 8022CB35777F0000:error:1200007A:random number generator:RAND_write_file:Not a regular file:../crypto/rand/randfile.c:190:Filename=/dev/urandom To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mod-auth-mellon/+bug/1945774/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
