| Zathrus | gardar: sure. They probably won't care though. |
| rabbit7 | torrent tools are evil anyways |
| action | Zathrus kicks rabbit7 |
| Zathrus | kicks rabbit7 |
| dag | gardar: depends if they think supporting EL4 is important gardar: EL3 and EL2.1 are out of the question because the require a newer libcurl than they ship |
| gardar | yeah... |
| dag | gardar: it's not because RHEL commits to supporting something for 7 years, that open source developers need to :) besides, most developers run the latest and greatest |
| gardar | maby I should upgrade my server to EL5 soon... |
| dag | I hope CentOS is being used more and more for development infrastructure so developers take care |
| Zathrus | ultimately it comes down to -- is this a bug in their build stuff, or is it an "outdated" library in EL4 |
| dag | not just for rtorrent, I would hope gardar; but I am going to report it anyhow, don't expect a fix what I could do is try a newer version than 0.7.1 and older than 0.7.4 the releases are 4 months from each other |
| gardar | yeah it would be good, if it's not too much trouble.... |
| bluh | Since when do OpenSSH DSA keys have to be 1024 bits? |
| dag | hmm, the problems I was chasing only show on x86_64 on i386 it all works fine |
| tiny | rabbit7: have you tried with official src.rpm package? You can get it on the home page. I'v downloaded it and started rpmbuild on it ... it looked okay but I didn't went far :) |
| rabbit7 | tiny download and building is fine try "gm identify somepicture.jpg" it will fail i think the problem is related with the shared libraries i remember creating an rpm without --with-shared which works fine.. |
| bluh | Well crap. "DSA keys must be exactly 1024 bits as specified by FIPS 186-2." Hmmm. Now that I think of it, it was only RSA that was expected to be weak in keysizes <2048bit. I guess I have to investigate DSA. |
| longword | And it wasn't all that weak |
| bluh | longword: Well, that depended on how much money one wanted to spend on hardware to pre-compute the lookup tables, but yeah. I'm glad to see that ssh-keygen is now defaulting to 2048bit for RSA. I have to update my new server build fu now, though. |
| doolittle | any help with installing python2.4 in centOS 4.3 ? |
| longword | Usually best not to mess with your system's python Lots of system tools like rpm and yum depend on it |
| doolittle | i need a command line torrent client bittorent asks for python2.4 do u suggest smth? (install debian) |
| bluh | doolittle: rtorrent maybe? |
| Zathrus | doolittle: bittorrent is available from rpmforge |
