Switching to gnutls from openssl in the next build
« on: October 02, 2014, 02:08:48 pm »

This is a heads-up for people messing with unsupported (non-debian i386 wheezy) distros.
To fix an issue with https, I'm switching to the gnutls libraries. This will add a dependency for libp11-kit.so (>=.12)
Also, openssl was looking for a cert directory at /etc/ssl/certs.
gnutls instead looks for a file at /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt
On debian this is created by doing update-ca-certificates.

For Arch 64-bit this is multilib/lib32-p11-kit. It was already installed on my system and /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt is present.

The license restore via the GUI seems to working too now on Arch (I just wasted 2 restores to test that :P).

The only thing (unrelated to SSL) was that there was a space after the code when I pasted it manually (maybe autocutsel did that?). When JRiver picked up the code from clipboard automatically it was good.

Thanks Bob!

On amd64 distros you'll likely get a whine about missing i386 libp11-kit plugins.
On Ubuntu anyway you can make these go away by installing:
p11-kit-modules:i386
and
libp11-kit-gnome-keyring:i386 if you are using gnome (the default).

You may also have to install
exo-utils

if you don't already have that to get the xdg-open (browser, etc) to work.
