Subject: [gentoo-user] Useflags for wget and curl: openssl versus gnutls?
Date: Mon, 05 Sep 2011 21:07:57
Message-Id: j43dkf$1j8$1@dough.gmane.org
1 A recent buglet in the wget package made me aware that openssl competes
2 with gnutls in certain ways. Even nss and libssh2 may be competing in
3 the same space, if maybe to a smaller extent.

5 Anyone here really understand the tradeoffs involved in the use of these
6 useflags, and why I might want to choose one over the other? Actually ATM
7 I have all four of those useflags enabled and I really don't understand
8 the potential consequences of my choices, which makes me worry just a bit.

10 Any clues much appreciated.
