This is the pre-packaged Debian version of the Netatalk protocol suite.

This package was originally put together by Klee Dienes <klee@debian.org>
and was later maintained by late Joel Klecker <espy@debian.org> and
David Huggins-Daines <dhd@debian.org>. It was repackaged by its current
maintainer Sebastian Rittau <srittau@debian.org>.

                                 OpenSSL
                                 =======

Netatalk supports OpenSSL to provide a secure means for authentication.
Unfortunately it's currently not possible for Debian to distribute
Netatalk with SSL support enabled, since OpenSSL's license is incompatible
with the GPL used by Netatalk.

But it's possible to build Netatalk with SSL support locally:

1. Make sure that the package libssl-dev is installed:

  apt-get install libssl-dev

2. Make sure all other build dependencies are fulfilled:

  apt-get build-dep netatalk

3. Download the Netatalk sources:

  apt-get source netatalk

4. Edit the rules file to enable SSL compilation:

  cd netatalk-1.5pre8 && \
  cp debian/rules debian/rules.bak && \
  sed -e 's/^#USE_SSL=yes/USE_SSL=yes/' debian/rules.bak >debian/rules

  (You may need to substitute the directory name netatalk-1.5pre8 with the
  proper one.)

5. Build the package:

  dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
