So, if someone HAS a licence to use the algorithm, OpenSSL will provide an implementation?
And because these patents are not everywhere in the world valid. (btw. IBM holds a patent on MDC2)
OpenSSL has no build in zlib, but uses a system provided version.OK, I haven't been in OpenSSL package for a while, I remeber "no-zlib", "zlib" and "zlib-shared" options. I usually use the last one. That is what I was refering to.
To ensure that the program you builds really uses the same zlib version (on build and on link) than the OpenSSL library you use can be a challenge... Bye Goetz -- DMCA: The greed of the few outweighs the freedom of the many
