           Summary: OpenNTPD has incorrect Depends
           Product: Openembedded
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Build
        AssignedTo: openembedded-devel at lists.openembedded.org
        ReportedBy: jonesml at fastmail.to
         QAContact: tinderbox-oe at gmx.net


The OpenNTPD package included in OE has a dependency on OpenSSL for crypto that
is not stated in the DEPENDS variable of the .bb file.

However, I feel that the correct solution to this problem is to build OpenNTPD
with it's own built in crypto rather than linking to a large external library.

To do this, simply add '--with-builtin-arc4random --without-ssl-dir' to the
configure flags, and the package builds without the need for an external
cryptography library and with a marginal increase in size. No changes to the
DEPENDS variable are then required.

Tested working on a uClibc build.
