Hello James.
I need to run OpenVPN on an embedded device running OpenWRT.
But I need to cross-compile OpenVPN with a specific .configure switch
("--enable-pkcs11").
Doing it from the OpenWRT SDK doesn't work for missing pkcs11-helper
dependency.
So my last resort is to bundle all necessary includes!
Hope you can help me with this puzzle.
Thank you very much,
Francesco Talarico
