Unable to use the Durex SSL Patch on Debian Squeeze 64bit

hi,
Ok after two weeks of using the cvs snapshot, i can say it works like a charm.
Nice to see that egdrop is still under heavy developing after so many years.
THx bye

make sslcert DEST=/somewhere

ah OK this makes sense

In short, on a 64-bit system with ssl, you're alone in the dark (with monsters) if you use anything but 1.8.

ok you convinced me, i will use the cvs snapshot you post above and will give you a short feedback, thanks for your patience

OK thanks for the explanation, the nice thing about using the sources from the Distri Repository is you can easy build a package and install/uninstall this by the packetmanager. Also if you read the Security Anounce Mailing List you get info`s about security updates relevatet to your'e installed version.

Sounds good, but is actually a terrible idea, when it comes to eggdrop. Distribution packages usually get it all wrong: apply buggy patches known to be bad, perform no testing and generally encourage bad usage patterns.
Considering how distributions blindly apply patches and how it takes an year to update when a new version is out, I wouldn't rely on distro packages for security.

So i will try the actual stable with rootie's patch. (ah i see no 64bit support)

NO! Rootie's patch for .20 is buggy and crashes almost instantly in most cases. Don't ever use it. You've been warned! You can't rely on 100% stability if you use 3rd party patches - in fact 1.8 is more stable and less buggy than most of them.

OK after compiling the snapshot of 1.8 the first thing i am wondering is the huge increase of the bin. The 1.6.19 bin was 1MB big, the 1.8 is 20MB.

That's because cvs builds default to make debug - the binary includes a lot of debugging symbols which increases it's size. If you compile .20 with 'make debug' it will grow to a similar size. And the opposite, if you compile 1.8 with 'make eggdrop' it will have normal size, but no debugging symbols. If you aren't running on a very restrictive shell, you'd better not disable debugging for 1.8 or we won't be able to help when you experience problems.

And another thing is, after <./configure> | and i try to and this fails with "Please run "make install" first." maybe its because i use the DEST= option after make install.

Code:

make sslcert DEST=/somewhere

In short, on a 64-bit system with ssl, you're alone in the dark (with monsters) if you use anything but 1.8.

OK now i need to read the doc's, sorry if i start to annoy you

But You right you guys can't support old version, this is the job by the distribution Maintainer.
So i will try the actual stable with rootie's patch. (ah i see no 64bit support)
And maybe i will give the 1.8 a chance on my "playing" box.
Thanks for your'e help

Yeah, 1.8 is the dev version we (the dev team) are working on. We consider it stable enough for everybody to try it. Rootie's patch for .20 came before SSL was officially committed in CVS. I strongly recommend you to avoid it and either try 1.8 (preferably) or 1.6.19 + the older version of the ssl patch. As I've put my effort in developing ssl for 1.8, I'm not interested in providing support for 3rd party ssl patches and older versions though.

If you have any problems with 1.8, report here or get in contact with us in the way you prefer.

Outdated eggdrop version, poor quality patch, source not obtained from official location.

Try ftp://ftp.eggheads.org/pub/eggdrop/sour ... hot.tar.gz instead of going through this pain.

Untar and follow the instructions in the INSTALL file.

ah sorry i forget the version in the debian repo's are eggdrop 1.6.19
and the patch is also for 1.6.19 so this couldn't be the problem

but i guess the version you postet is the 1.6.20 (not sure because of the 1.8, is this the code the dev's working on right now?) and in the NEWS file are this comment:

Code:

Full SSL support has been added for all kinds of connections, including certificate verification and authorization. See doc/TLS.

so it seems that SSL its now offical included, but than i am wondering why there is still a ssl patch by rootie *confused*

An now i got a few files in the parent dir which isn't normal i guess

root@squeeze:/tmp# ls
aclocal.m4.orig config.h.in.orig configure.ac.orig configure.orig eggdrop-1.6.19 eggdrop_1.6.19.orig.tar.gz Makefile.in.orig src
aclocal.m4.rej config.h.in.rej configure.ac.rej configure.rej eggdrop_1.6.19-1.2.diff.gz eggdrop-1.6.19-ssl_and_md5_and_thread-durex.patch Makefile.in.rej

when i use the -p0 option i got the same error messages above but a new DIR (eggdrop1.6.19-ssl) is created. But this DIR doesn't seem to be OK for my eys, i can't build a a new deb package out of this.
Ok Guys i am realy confused, i test also the rootie ssl patch, and patching works fine, but its immpossible to use the SSL function, guess its because of the 64bit Architecture.
Does anyone have any hint for me?
