Bug 13795 – OpenSSH-3.5_p1 + OpenSSL-0.9.7 + gcc-3.x == failure

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description SpanKY 2003-01-12 14:13:13 UTC]

confirmed on multiple boxes ... 
works with gcc-2.x, just not gcc-3.x 
 
gcc -o ssh ssh.o sshconnect.o sshconnect1.o sshconnect2.o sshtty.o readconf.o clientloop.o 
-L. -Lopenbsd-compat/  -lssh -lopenbsd-compat -lutil -lz -lnsl -lcrypto 
./libssh.a(rsa.o)(.text+0x2fd): In function `rsa_generate_additional_parameters': 
: undefined reference to `BN_mod' 
./libssh.a(rsa.o)(.text+0x341): In function `rsa_generate_additional_parameters': 
: undefined reference to `BN_mod' 
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status 
make: *** [ssh] Error 1

heres the trouble ... 
in openssl-0.9.6 we have in include/openssl/bn.h: 
int BN_mod(BIGNUM *rem, const BIGNUM *m, const BIGNUM *d, BN_CTX *ctx); 
but in openssl-0.9.7 we have it as a macro ... 
#define BN_mod(rem,m,d,ctx) BN_div(NULL,(rem),(m),(d),(ctx)) 
 
so the final libcrypto files dont have BN_mod defined ... 
the fix may be to turn this back into a func, but just a pass through ... hacking openssl-0.9.7 if 
you would ... 
this *might* be better because who is to say this is the only package that breaks ...

http://bugzilla.mindrot.org/show_bug.cgi?id=462 discusses this problem.  It
seems there could be an old definition for BN_mod hanging around in
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.2.2/include/openssl/bn.h.

qpkg shows that that file belongs to sys-devel/gcc.  So I re-emerged gcc
(sys-devel/gcc-3.2.2), which replaced that bn.h with a new one, and then
emerging openssh worked.

I can confirm that removing the stray header in the gcc-lib dir resolves this.

Looks like this "fix" is now having issues
