Description yegle 2010-10-05 14:30:06 UTC
racoon should be compiled with radius support, with --libradius configuration directive.


Reproducible: Always




According to the comment in ipsec-tools's ebuild file:
    # No way to get it compiling with freeradius or gnuradius
    # We would need libradius which only exists on FreeBSD

But according to ipsec-tools project's trac page:
https://trac.ipsec-tools.net/ticket/305

Someone managed to compile ipsec-tools with libradius successfully on Linux

I just took up maintainership of ipsec-tools.  This is the last bug open against it.  I'm willing to consider radius support, but that link is dead.  I'll play with it a bit and if I get anywhere I'll add it, otherwise I'm just going to pass.
Comment 2 Anthony Basile gentoo-dev 2012-03-08 13:37:14 UTC
The package lacks radius support in linux and it would be a lot of work to get it in there.  Unless someone is willing to do that leg work, I'm dropping radius support.  I want to move forward on this improtant package.
