Wow, this is a big surprise! Now we seem to have the absence of documentation about the issue, which seems a bit odd... given that this has been an issue in Debian for so long. > Please consider removing the override of CONFIG_FIT_SIGNATURE in > debian/rules to get signature supports in u-boot tools. > > MR opened on Salsa: > > https://salsa.debian.org/debian/u-boot/-/merge_requests/14 Thanks for the proposed update! Because the system library exception for GPL+openssl seems like a strange workaround to me... I did give a short attempt at switching u-boot over to wolfssl using the openssl compatibility layer, though it still needs a bit too much work to make the change at this point. Eventually I'll probably just merge your proposed changes... live well, vagrant
