From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: bugzilla at busybox.net Date: Tue, 11 Sep 2018 09:39:20 +0000 Subject: [Buildroot] [Bug 11331] Internal application no longer builds with latest GIT master In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=11331 Thomas Petazzoni changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Resolution|--- |WONTFIX Status|NEW |RESOLVED --- Comment #1 from Thomas Petazzoni --- This is a decision from glibc upstream, which removed those functions from glibc 2.28. See https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2018-08/msg00000.html, which says: """ * The obsolete functions encrypt, encrypt_r, setkey, setkey_r, cbc_crypt, ecb_crypt, and des_setparity are no longer available to newly linked binaries, and the headers and are no longer installed. These functions encrypted and decrypted data with the DES block cipher, which is no longer considered secure. Software that still uses these functions should switch to a modern cryptography library, such as libgcrypt. """ So, you should fix your application it seems. Buildroot is not going to revert this change, unless you can convince glibc upstream developers to also revert it, which I guess will be challenging. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
