#367 Another bundled MD5 implementation originally by Ulrich Drepper
Closed: Fixed None Opened 10 years ago by mschwendt.

In "Busybox" another bundled MD5 implementation has been found,

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1024549

originally by Ulrich Drepper, but it's not the one as covered before in https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/130

Since there hasn't been any response in bugzilla yet, I've opened this ticket here.


Approved: use bundled(md5-drepper) and please continue to see if busybox would be willing to switch implementations to use the version from gcc.

(+1:5, 0:0, -1:0)

The meeting log is unclear since the FPC members have voted on "bundled(md5-Drepper2)":

{{{

}}}

After the meeting, I saw that the first bundled provide for Ulrich Drepper's code was md5-gcc rather than md5-drepper. It doesn't matter to me though. (although I think all fpc members would rather use lowercase).

I'll change it to bundled(md5-drepper2) since that's what we voted on.
