Hello,
I opened an issue upstream [1] to ask for feedbacks. Azat suggest to
change the function signature from
void evutil_secure_rng_add_bytes(const char *buf, size_t n);
to:
int evutil_secure_rng_add_bytes(const char *buf, size_t n)
and make evutil_secure_rng_add_bytes to return -1, to make it more
explicit that the function is no-oped.
I understand and I tend to agree with this suggestion, but I'm wondering
if this solution is correct for this bug?
The symbol would still be the same, but would the signature change
introduce problems in the libevent package dependencies and build-deps?
Any thoughts?
