== How to get [[libcrypto|crypto++]] working on Debian Sarge and Woody (from deb package): ==

Get libcrypto++ backport package to Sarge and Woody (thanks, thermoman) by adding this line to /etc/apt/sources.list:

deb http://debian.thermoman.de/ woody libcrypto++

Then run

apt-get update
apt-get install libcrypto++

After installing, make a symbolic link in /usr/include/crypto++ from cryptopp_config.h to config.h in the same directory:

ln -s /usr/include/crypto++/cryptopp_config.h /usr/include/crypto++/config.h

NOTE: You have to link the files because of a bug in Debian libcrypto++ package

or

''apt-get source libcrypto++, cd libcrypto++-5.1, dpkg-buildpackage -b -B -uc''
