On one hand, it seems that the issue is triggered only when you link versioned library against non-versioned, and all other kerberos libraries that use libasn1 are versioned. On the other, you're right and if we don't fix libasn1 anything else linking agains it (e.g. something from ports) might trigger the bug. > The only downside I see is that libasn1 has a lot of symbols. Yep, that was my concern. :-( But I think you're right and we should go with the edited libasn1 map. I noticed that you added some internal symbols to the map, though (.e.g. _init and _fini). What do you think if we take them out? There're some other symbols as well which no libraries seem to use. -- Stanislav Sedov ST4096-RIPE () ascii ribbon campaign - against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org - against proprietary attachments
