> Why is openssl the default? default? one has to install libcurl3-gnutls-dev or libcurl3-openssl-dev in order to build something with libcurl, there is no default choice for the developer. nobody can now hide behind a "i didn't know libcurl3-dev brings openssl in my pants". about libcurl3 being linked with openssl instead of gnutls, i'm not personally biased. i only wanted to stay on the safe side [0]. if libcurl4 comes, i will surely point it to gnutls. ciao domenico [0] http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2005/09/msg00079.html -----[ Domenico Andreoli, aka cavok --[ http://people.debian.org/~cavok/gpgkey.asc ---[ 3A0F 2F80 F79C 678A 8936 4FEE 0677 9033 A20E BC50 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
