Bug 659622 – dev-libs/gost-engine: ebuild request, because GOST moved of openssl>=1.1.0 tree

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Eugene Bright 2018-06-29 21:20:06 UTC]

Openssl>=1.1.0 [removes GOST engine][1].
There is a [standalone GOST engine implementation][2].
Support of this library is essential for many Russian users.

Many ebuild requests remain open for years, because nobody maintains the package.
If you want to be (proxied) maintainer of this package, please contact the proxy team [1] and prepare an ebuild [2].

You may want to link your repository [3] or attach the ebuild here until it makes its way to the official tree.
