Aloha!
We have a set of Athlon (1200 or 1333 MHz) basesd worksatations. For these
I've tried to install crypto support using either gnupg, pnugp or pgp5 from
the ports. It doesn't go particularily well.
Besides such problems like the pgp port not installing based on PREFIX (it
installs the stuff in /usr/local even though the info in /vad/db/pkg/pgp says
it was installed in /usr/opt) Something more disturbing is happening.
Both versions of pgp dies with a signal 8 (SIGPFE) when running. Like this:
<quote>
js@marge.springfield.se:/usr/home/js>pgp -h
No randseed file found.
Cannot open configuration file /usr/home/js/.pgp/pgp.cfg
PGP is now invoked from different executables for different operations:
pgpe Encrypt (including Encrypt/Sign)
pgps Sign
pgpv Verify/Decrypt
pgpk Key management
pgpo PGP 2.6.2 command-line simulator (not yet implemented)
See each application's respective man page or the general PGP documentation
for more information.
Received signal 8.

The machines all uses recompiled, not GENERIC kernels. The cpu setting in the
config files are set to I686_CPU.
I've tried to set the CPUTYPE in /etc/defaults/make.conf to k7, but it doesn't
chage the behaviour.
The machines are all running the same 4.3-STABLE built in June.
Finally, gnupg also have problems. It simply never quits waiting for entropy
during key generation. I try to use the smallest key size, but gnupg locks up
even though I use the machine and the keyboard for hours.
Any help and pointers would be greatly appreciated.
