| As Kris Jurka found out, pgcrypto does not work with OpenSSL 0.9.6x. The DES functions use the older 'des_' API, but the newer 3DES functions use the 0.9.7x-only 'DES_' API. I think I just used /usr/include/openssl/des.h for reference when implementing them, and had upgraded OpenSSL in the meantime. Following patch converts DES also to newer API and provides compatibility functions for OpenSSL < 0.9.7. I chose this route because: - openssl.c uses few DES functions. - compatibility for old 'des_' API is going away at some point of time from OpenSSL. - as seen from macros, new API is saner - Thus pgcrypto supports any OpenSSL version from 0.9.5 to 1.0 Tested with OpenSSL 0.9.6c and 0.9.7e. -- marko PS. It's nice to see that the 'autoconfiguration' already pays back. ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not match |

I just applied this patch to my system running HEAD and OpenSSL 0.9.8; all regression tests passed. BTW, OpenSSL 0.9.8 has been released: http://www.mail-archive.com/openssl-.../msg00063.html -- Michael Fuhr http://www.fuhr.org/~mfuhr/ ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq |
