Description

Actually the FIPS support in the fedora's OpenSSL pre-dates the unreleased upstream support on the 1.0.1 branch. It is a partial forward-port from the 0.9.8 fips branch and there it was in the openssl/fips.h include file. Ah, okay. I expected something like this. Would it be possible to get an #include <openssl/fips.h> in crypto.h, for example? Right now it's hard to write code for both. You can test for the openssl version and include either fips.h or crypto.h. Note that Fedora will sooner or later upgrade to 1.0.1 branch anyway and if you want to support the RHEL-5 or 6 you'll have to live with the current placement of FIPS_mode() in fips.h as these distributions will not be changed in this regard. Understandable, thanks for your comments. This message is a reminder that Fedora 16 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 16. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '16'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 16's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 16 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
