Kubuntu: Howto build vpnc with SSL-support
The version of vpnc form the (k)ubuntu adept repository doesn’t have builtin
SSL-support. So you have to build it from the sources manually.
- for building deb packages:
# apt-get install fakeroot debhelper dpatch
- for compiling vpnc with ssl support:
# apt-get install libgcrypt11-dev openssl libssl-dev
- create temp directory and get vpnc sources:
# mkdir tmp_dir
# cd tmp_dir
# apt-get source vpnc - modify MAKEFILE:
To enable OpenSSL certificate support cd to the directory containing
the vpnc sources and uncomment following lines in Makefile:OPENSSL_GPL_VIOLATION = -DOPENSSL_GPL_VIOLATION OPENSSLLIBS = -lcrypto
- build the package:
# dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
- install the package:
# dpkg -i vpnc_0.5.1r275-1_amd64.deb
Done.
