Openvpn in Slackware -curent: easy-rsa scripts missing
According to:
http://openvpn.net/index.php/open-source/downloads.html the easy-rsa scripts have been moved out of the main openvpn download into their own package. As a consequence of this (I'm assuming), the easy-rsa scripts have disappeared from -current as well (I think they used to be in /usr/share/doc/openvpn). I always rely on the easy-rsa scripts to create a new CA and to manage the client certificates and keys when rolling a new openvpn installation. It would be nice if they could find their way back into Slackware. Then again - I don't have any statistics to hand - maybe not many other people are using them? |

Here's a patch for the SlackBuild in -current (also attached as a text file):
Code:
--- openvpn.SlackBuild 2013-04-30 15:38:18.000000000 +0200 |
Brilliant! Thanks. Is this likely to make its way into Slackware - or just to be used as a one off?

I suspect that Pat might be inclined to have a look because the changes in the last release also affect the sample files that usually go into /usr/doc/openvpn-x.y.z
Let's see what he decides to do. ;-) |
Bump
I notice that the easy-rsa scripts are still missing in -current. Is anything being done to bring them back? |
bump
Any chance of the Easy-RSA scripts making it back into Slackware? They are the main way to generate the CA's and server and client certificates for OpenVPN - and the OpenVPN community is still offering and maintaining them here: https://github.com/OpenVPN/easy-rsa |
Another bump - may Pat or someone else will notice this thread
