- define a HERE variable to indicate where the source tree is (used
very little right now)
- make more use of copying and making attribute changes to {file}.new,
and then move it to {file}
- use 'mv -f' to avoid all those questions to the user when the file
in question doesn't have write attributes for that user.
(the same keys can be used for ECC schemes other than ECDSA)
and add some new options.
Similarly, use string "EC PARAMETERS" instead of "ECDSA PARAMETERS"
in 'PEM' format.
Fix ec_asn1.c (take into account the desired conversion form).
'make update'.

* When linking against shared libraries, the absolute path is remembered.
- When linking against -L.., '..' is remembered inside the executable,
so it will fail after "make install" or when not called from inside the
"apps/" subdirectory of the build tree.
- When using the "+cdp" option of "ld", the ".." information can be
exchanged against $(INSTALL_TOP)/lib. In this case the executable
will however refuse to work before "make install" has been called.
This makes testing the 'openssl' executable a problem.
* Solution 1:
Relink the "openssl" executable, when "make install" is called.
This would however require significant changes to the toplevel Makefile
and the apps/ Makefile.
* Solution 2:
Statically link against libssl and libcrypto, so that the "openssl"
executable is no longer dependant on the openssl shared libraries.
Select option 2 for HP-UX 32bit, as this requires the smallest change.
sooner and the programs get built against the shared libraries.
This requires a bit more work. Things like -rpath and the possibility
to still link the programs statically should be included. Some
cleanup is also needed. This will be worked on.
libdes (which is still used out there) or other des implementations,
the OpenSSL DES functions are renamed to begin with DES_ instead of
des_. Compatibility routines are provided and declared by including
openssl/des_old.h. Those declarations are the same as were in des.h
when the OpenSSL project started, which is exactly how libdes looked
at that time, and hopefully still looks today.
The compatibility functions will be removed in some future release, at
the latest in version 1.0.
See the commit log message for that for more information.
NB: X509_STORE_CTX's use of "ex_data" support was actually misimplemented
(initialisation by "memset" won't/can't/doesn't work). This fixes that but
requires that X509_STORE_CTX_init() be able to handle errors - so its
prototype has been changed to return 'int' rather than 'void'. All uses of
that function throughout the source code have been tracked down and
adjusted.
and make all files the depend on it include it without prefixing it
with openssl/.
This means that all Makefiles will have $(TOP) as one of the include
directories.
sure they are available in opensslconf.h, by giving them names starting
with "OPENSSL_" to avoid conflicts with other packages and by making
sure e_os2.h will cover all platform-specific cases together with
opensslconf.h.
I've checked fairly well that nothing breaks with this (apart from
external software that will adapt if they have used something like
NO_KRB5), but I can't guarantee it completely, so a review of this
change would be a good thing.
