I don't know the relationship of the original qca and qca-tls or how the original qca-tls depended upon qca for building. That relationship will have to be validated too. I have no idea how to test either.

Therefore I don't think anything has been done to the converted tqca-tls sources that eliminates the need for a converted qca package. (Francois mentioned he has a patch that does something like that.)

Darrell,

   I don't know what I was doing, but tqca-tls has been building fine without 
issue on tqt3 for me:

tde-tqca-tls /opt/
tde-tqca-tls /opt/tqt3/
tde-tqca-tls /opt/tqt3/plugins/
tde-tqca-tls /opt/tqt3/plugins/crypto/
tde-tqca-tls /opt/tqt3/plugins/crypto/libqca-tls.so

   I haven't tried building your converted package yet, but I was surprised 
when I read bug 817, because I'm either entirely confused as to what the issue 
was or I have just been lucky:

from the GIT tree:  tqca-tls.tar.gz

   [ "$QTDIR" = "" ] && . /etc/profile.d/tqt3.sh
   [ "$TDEDIR" = "" ] && . /etc/profile.d/trinity.sh

   ./configure --qtdir=${QTDIR} \
     --debug

   make  || return 1

   Am I completely missing the point?
