[Fink-devel] Package overlap in libmd & openssl-dev

[Carsten K. <car...@us...>]

Hi,

I created a package for libmd (from FreeBSD's md5 library) because  
another program I want to port requires it, and there is a small  
problem.

One file overlaps with OpenSSL-dev, a man file: /sw/share/man/man3/md5.3

The openssl with Mac OS X provides a version of this man file too, but  
it is renamed /usr/share/man/man3/md5.3o.

The library provides some md5 header files and libmd.a so apps can use  
md5 functions without coding it themselves. It looks like openssl  
directly includes some source code and headers from md5.

How should I handle this, just leave it out?

Thanks for any suggestions,
Carsten
