Description Anthony Ryan 2016-12-30 01:19:03 UTC
net-misc/curl-7.52.1 is unable to sustain multiple concurrent https connections with the openssl backend (gnutls users are not affected).

This issue was introduced in:
https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/cb4e2be7c6d42ca0780f8e0a747cecf9ba45f151

And resolved upstream in:
https://github.com/curl/curl/commit/a7b38c9dc98481e4a5fc37e51a8690337c674dfb

Seeing as this version of curl is being stabilized as part of bug 603574 / CVE-2016-9594, I think we need to get this backported. The inability to have multiple concurrent HTTPS connections is a serious issue for stabilization.

Thanks guys, I was going insane (like, switched from rtorrent to deluge insane)...

Confirmed fixed in curl-7.52.1-r1.ebuild, broken in the still unmasked curl-7.52.1.ebuild

as soon as stabilization occurs on 7.52.1-r1 we will yank 7.52.1.  we can't mask it yet.
