[Dovecot] Problems with alpha3 + openssl-0.9.8
Has anybody successfully compiled alpha 3 with the newly released
openssl-0.9.8? I just wasted the weekend trying to get dovecot to
compile using the new openssl libs. Openssl-0.9.7d works like dream.
Just wanted to know if anybody had this combo working.
andy,

fwiw, i've not tried dovecot w/ openssl-098, and i'm on OSX 10.4.2 ...
BUT,
i tried openssl-098 awhile ago, and had SERIOUS problems with MANY apps. iiuc, there have been some significant changes from 097->098.
after getting caught up in the OpenSSL <--> Apple ping-pong-politics, i 'retreated' to
OpenSSL 0.9.7g 11 Apr 2005and everything ssl-related has been smooth sailing since ...
cheers,
richard
Sure, I'm using alpha3 with ssl 0.9.8 on Solaris 9 Sparc, no problems. Alpha2 worked with 098 as well. Everything is built with gcc 4.0.1. Mbox format, method=PLAIN, TLS, for imap.
BUT... openssl 0.9.8 had major problems on HP PA-RISC chipsets with HPUX (32 bit and 64 bit), using gcc 4.0.1. It miserably failed its self-tests. The SSL folks and I traced this to buggy code coming out of gcc 4.0.1. With gcc 3.4.4 on the same platforms, everything worked fine. I don't know if the SSL folks sent this bug up the chain to GNU central or not.
