What makes you think that? We have disabled the ec2m part currently to allow FIPS integration (as the fips patch cannot handle it). Is it needed somewhere?

erlang wants ec2m to be compiled. actually, do not want, but it doesn't check whether it is available: [ 885s] crypto.c:3018:6: warning: implicit declaration of function 'EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m' [-Wimplicit-function-declaration] [ 885s] group = EC_GROUP_new_curve_GF2m(p, a, b, NULL); now I have a patch to handle that. So, I asked just because EC2M was here in 13.1 and disappeared. -- With best regards, Matwey V.
