This project repackages the OpenBSD (http://www.openbsd.org/) fork of
|
||
|
|
OpenSSL (https://www.openssl.org/), LibreSSL (http://www.libressl.org/), so
|
||
|
|
it is buildable on other systems.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build, you need autoconf, automake and libtool installed.
|
||
|
|
To run all unit tests, you need python installed as well.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Run 'autogen.sh' followed by './configure; make; make check'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To build a tarball, run 'make dist'
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
You may need to periodically clean/dist-clean your source tree or rerun
|
||
|
|
autogen.sh/update.sh in order to import the latest source from the git
|
||
|
|
submodules.

Warning:
|
||
|
|
This is an alpha work-in-progress, not ready for general use. It is based on
|
||
|
|
semi-regular snapshots of the upstream code with minimal patching (see the
|
||
|
|
compat_fixes branches on the upstream import trees for current patches).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Use it this check application compatibility, security research, code auditing,
|
||
|
|
or to just see what the LibreSSL team is up to. Just don't use it in
|
||
|
|
production!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Please also read Nick Mathewson's warning on libottery. While we are not
|
||
|
|
currently incorporating this library for random numbers, the warning is still
|
||
|
|
relevant.

Caveat Emptor:
|
||
|
|
While this project uses compatibility shims and imports functions from
|
||
|
|
OpenBSD's libc, it is a continual challenge to make it work exactly the same as
|
||
|
|
if it is running on OpenBSD. Until there is an official port of LibreSSL (and
|
||
|
|
even after), please conduct your own audits and patches are always welcome.
