Description Peter Vrabec 2007-10-23 10:17:31 UTC 
dbus should be ported to use NSS library for cryptography.
See the tracking bug for details and links on how it could be done.
Comment 1 David Zeuthen 2007-10-23 15:16:47 UTC 
AFAIK, we don't use any non-trivial crypt in D-Bus right now

[davidz@oneill ~]$ ldd /lib/libdbus-1.so
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0x00110000)
        libcap.so.1 => /lib/libcap.so.1 (0x0088d000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00111000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7fb6000)

[davidz@oneill ~]$ ldd /bin/dbus-daemon 
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0x0012d000)
        libexpat.so.1 => /lib/libexpat.so.1 (0x0012e000)
        libselinux.so.1 => /lib/libselinux.so.1 (0x0014f000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x0016a000)
        libaudit.so.0 => /lib/libaudit.so.0 (0x00183000)
        libcap.so.1 => /lib/libcap.so.1 (0x00198000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x0019b000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x002f4000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00110000)

There's talk of adding TLS support, for the TCP/IP transport, I know that
Lennart needs that for Mango Lassi

Anyway, closing as NOTABUG since we don't use non-trivial cryptography. Adding
the upstream author in case he wants to chip in. Feel free to reopen if I'm wrong.

Thanks,
David
