Wasn't this discussed just some weeks ago?

: The name md5_init is the advertised name, and that's what the C source : files should use. But to the linker the symbol is nettle_md5_init, to : avoid collisions with other md5 code that you might happen to link : with. There's a : : #define md5_init nettle_md5_init : : So for configure, one should either test for both nettle_md5_init and : md5_init, or test for only md5_init and make sure that the testprogram : includes nettle/md5.h. : : It's similar to gmp, where mpz_foo really is __gmpz_foo, except that I : don't think that number of underscores is appropriate for nettle.

2004-02-06 14:58: Subject: Nettle 1.7 and pike 7.5
Hello there,
Seems that Pike 7.5 is not compatible with nettle 1.7... because it look for nettle_md5_init() and since it doesn't exist on Nettle 1.7.... It fails...
Ok, now this is bad that 1.8 has some api changes.... and/or that Pike 7.5 cannot cope with Nettle 1.7 ;(
My question is why do pike doen't support both api ???
