Hi,
I'm using sgolovan's tclsasl on debian sid:
$ apt-cache policy tclsasl
tclsasl:
Installed: 1.0-4
Candidate: 1.0-4
Version table:
*** 1.0-4 0
500 http://sgolovan.nes.ru/debian/ jessie/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
tclsh8.6 fails to load package sasl:
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sasl2 tclsh8.6
% package require sasl
couldn't load file "/usr/lib/libtclsasl.so": /usr/lib/libtclsasl.so: undefined symbol: tclStubsPtr
%
<offtopic>
my bash-foo to start tkabber which can login to google talk:
$ sudo ln -sf wish8.5 /usr/bin/wish
$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/sasl2/ tkabber
anonymous added on 2015-06-18 09:36:46: 1) You can find recent SASL package comatible with tkabber in tcllib: apt-get install tcllib 2) Google ClientLogin, used for secure authentication over insecure connection, was deprecated - https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/AuthForInstalledApps - and now you need to establish secure connection first. For tkabber: a. apt-get install tcl-tls b. check STARTTLS option in Tkabber login window c. set ::::loginconf(sslcacertstore) option in Tkabber settings to '/etc/ssl/certs', it will verify connection certificates against system certificate storage and Tkabber will not show SSL warnings sgolovan added on 2015-06-18 09:56:41: The tclsasl extension is long time unmaintained and abandoned, so I don't think it'll be usable with Tcl 8.6 in the future. But what surprises me is that your Tkabber haven't loaded the SASL package from Tcllib automagically. Ideally, you shouldn't notice that tclsasl doesn't work at all. Could you try to execute package require SASL in a tclsh8.6 session and tell if it fails for some reason? Also, could you show the XML log for the failed connection attempt using Tcl/Tk 8.6 and for the successful connection attempt using Tcl/Tk 8.5? sgolovan (claiming to be Sergei Golovan) added on 2015-12-20 09:38:27: As far as I can see, the SASL package from the Tcllib should be enough for Tkabber to work. The tclsasl isn't necessary. Therefore, I'm closing this bug. If you think otherwise then feel free to reopen it with an example where you can connect to some XMPP server using tclsasl and can't connect with the SASL package. | ||||
