[Pkg-sssd-devel] SSSD package in Debian: crypto provider

[Alexey Tikhonov]

Hi,

SSSD upstream maintainers plan to completely drop support of `libnss`
as a crypto backend [1]
Moreover, as of 2.3.0 upstream release the default was already
switched to use OpenSLL (libcrypto) [2]

Do you have any concerns with this?

I took a look at the content of
https://salsa.debian.org/sssd-team/sssd/-/tree/debian/2.3.0-1/debian
but not sure I understand correctly how Debian package is built.

I didn't find `--with-crypto=` configure param to be set explicitly.
If default (libcrypto) is already used, then I guess everything should
be fine...
