will do done checked in What about an update for 9.3? lnussel said as gnutls isnt used by any server app fixing stable is enough ok! Ok, I will reopen it again b/c I saw that rcd uses libsoup which uses gnutls. Therefore we have server code using gnutls. It's likely that other Ximian code uses SOUP+SSL as well. Ludwig told me that they made API changes in the update. But these changes may not be necessary for the fix, aren't they? Ok, I will reopen it again b/c I saw that rcd uses libsoup which uses gnutls.

But these changes may not be necessary for the fix, aren't they? uh that sucks. rcd is compiled static against everything. ill check. gnutls and rcd should be enough then or? And please have a look at the patch. Attached Created attachment 41777 [details]
gnutls dos patch
packages submitted to 9.1, 9.2, 9.3. Im not sure how to proceed now. How can we know when rcd will pick up a libsoup that is compiled against the fixed gnutls? I don't know, why don't you link it dynamically anyways? Does only rcd contain the gnutls lib or any other subpackage as well? because then rcd would not be able to update itself or libsoup. ximian development said the rcd binary needs to be static. rcd links libsoup static at compile time which uses gnutls. Just include rcd in the patchinfo file for gnutls. an rcd update will probably be done for 9.1 anyway on backmerging the sp2 tree. SM-Tracker-1799 notes by QA: I have taken some testcase from http://www.gnu.org/software/gnutls/manual/gnutls.html and added them to pdb: http://pdb.suse.de/pdb-testcases.pl?Package=gnutls&Release=10&tcid=5807&sortkey=5 updates approved. harald, what is the status here? this should be in patch-10431 - f93152df6a15f25149d78610657d2b17 For all core9-based products (NLD, OES,SLES). The idea was to release the same code to 9.3 after some "real live" experiences. Heiko found a "new" problem. I add him as I haven't the new bug-ID see last comment ... you dont want to wait with this update untill gnutls is arch clean. The bugs heiko discovered where always present... this is so minor for the 9.3 box, and rcd is not default used there anyway, that we can skip fixing redcarpet for 9.3. lets rest this issue.
