Description Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-11 12:49:32 UTC
Simple test case: connect to a ssl jabber server using gossip (like im.gentoo.org, also happens on other servers)... Gossip will crash on connection inside libgcrypt... 

This also happens on debian/sparc.. making gossip unusable..
Comment 1 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-11 21:43:20 UTC
well, isn't that an upstream thing? i have no sparc to test this.
Comment 2 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-12 03:57:22 UTC
This has been reported upstream, but they should probably be marked -sparc... (gossip, libgcrypt and gnutls..) and at least for gossip replace the dep with ssl? ( !sparc?(....
Comment 3 foser (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-12 04:56:00 UTC
well isn't that a sparc thing to do then ?

Can you btw provide the upstream bugreport link as a point of reference ?
Comment 4 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-12 05:41:50 UTC
its probably a sparc thing... upstream is at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=144206
Comment 5 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-07-23 23:34:39 UTC
can't really do much about something i can't reproduce :(
Comment 6 Jason Wever (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-31 17:57:56 UTC
Oliver,

Have any of the recent updates to libgcrypt helped this at all?  I'd test but I'm away from any SPARCs with a GUI for a bit.
Comment 7 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-31 19:01:30 UTC
I dont currently have a sparc with gui either... 
Comment 8 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-06 18:15:33 UTC
got back access to a sparc box.. and no its not fixed... But its fixed on debian unstable.. And they use libgcrypt 1.2.0 and gnutls 1.0.16 ... 
And btw.. the current ~sparc gossip doesnt build with the latest loudmouth... once this is fixed, you should mark gossip 0.7.8
Comment 9 Jason Wever (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-09 16:37:21 UTC
OK, I have a fix for libgcrypt which appears to do the job.  It appears the problem was with how the rijndael.c file in libgcrypt's ciphers was aligning things.  A diff from CVS appears to fix the problem as now gossip and gaim work for me on SSL based jabber servers where they didn't before.

Alastair, any problems with me adding said patch in a new rev bump?
Comment 10 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-10 05:31:30 UTC
weeve, no problems, go ahead and add it.
Comment 11 Jason Wever (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-10 07:52:10 UTC
Added libgcrypt-1.2.0-r2 with the fix for sparc and bumped gossip to 0.7.8.  Feel free to re-open if this is still a problem for you.  Thanks for the bug :)
Comment 12 Olivier Crete (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-10-12 10:06:15 UTC
I can confirm that its fixed.. thank you
