Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] rbd: don't link with -lcrypto
Date: Mon,  7 Mar 2011 07:17:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1299478669-11231-1-git-send-email-aurelien@aurel32.net> (raw)

rbd support tries to both link with -lrados and -lcrypto. While the
first one is of course necessary, the second is not necessary (only
librados ifself needs to link with libcrypto).

This fixes a licensing issue: qemu as a whole is GPL v2, and thus can't
be linked with OpenSSL without an exception in the license, which seems
difficult to get given the number of persons involved.
