My supplier just apologized for messing up my order, and assures me that my SuSE 8.1 Pro is *finally* in the mail. During our conversation, he confirmed that the Canadian regional distributor had gone bankrupt last year, and that nobody seems to be stepping in to replace them. Therefore, SuSE and other software is currently being brought in from the USA (not from Germany or other "foreign" source). However, this means that my new 8.1 will probably have the crippled "export" level encryption... even though the original from Germany probably contained full-strength crypto. My question to the list is: How pervasive is that crippling? Is it just in one or two packages, or is this a far-reaching limitation that reaches into all levels of the distro? I think of PGP/GPG, apache/openssl... but what else will either be missing entirely, or included with only low-strength, pre-broken crypto? Will it be automatically fixed the next time I run YOU, or will YOU leave all the crippled apps and modules crippled unless I know to name them for replacement? (In other words, does gwdg.de and SuSE undertake to enforce Amerika's [or anybody else's] laws onto third parties?) Thanks, /kevin
