I have been compiling and deploying FR source for a good while in Debian

however upon trying to install it in a cleanly installed system, I just found out I cant.

The difference is that my production system (still) has a dangling libssl version from Debian 8 backports, that was installed *before* the upgrade to Debian 9.

That shouldn't make much difference...

...

However, in a pure Debian 9 system, I see this error when trying to install FR 3.0.16 git from my internal repository:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

freeradius : Depends: libssl1.0.0 (>= 1.0.1) but it is not installable

The only thing that I change to compile it is in

debian/control:10: libjson0 | libjson-c2,

Changing libjson-c2 to libjson-c3.

Ah... the "DLL hell" problem. Different packages have different dependencies. And those dependencies can conflict...

...

I would like to ask for a change for installing it in Debian 9; it has been running well, however I do not have the necessary background to propose a *proper quality* patch.

We'll take a look thanks.

Alan DeKok.

Hi Alan, What is the best way to send patches?
