#5 Remove unix-crypt and crypt3 dep
Hi Peter, I saw a bug ticketed for this package due to failing check, which led me to https://sourceforge.net/p/ccrypt/bugs/28/. I see your comment about removing unix-crypt / crypt3 dep. I took a stab at it in the attached diff, hope it helps with the next release. I noticed the last one was 2018, not sure if you still maintain this. Anyway you'll find the patch attached. Besides applying it I had to run autoreconf due to old automake version used in the 2018 release. I did not include the autoconf changes in the patch to not pollute it...
Hi, thanks for this. However, that is not what the fix is. What needs to be removed is the dependency on libcrypt3 (the "unix crypt" library), not the --unixcrypt functionality. Ccrypt already emulates libcrypt3, so all that needs to be done is basically use --disable-libcrypt every time, instead of trying to use the system-wide libcrypt3.
I've already fixed this upstream, but I haven't made a release yet.
