I see no reason that cert_exrtact.c looks suspicious ? The two small scripts, especially the makefile, looks kind of trivial. Removing them is not a option, unless you want to strip kde of its ssl support. The author of that file have from 1995 been very active across several open source projects, so getting license clarifications should be possible, if he even remembers what he did 11 years ago. http://rpm5.org/community/rpm-devel/3496.html /Sune -- How to log in a wordprocessor from Photoshop XP?
