[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#603192: Please enable CMS support in the openssl package for squeeze

Package: openssl
Version: 0.9.8o

By default the CMS utility is not compiled in the default build
http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/cms.html#

the CMS utility succeeds the smime utility.

It is needed to decrypt messages from Outlook 2010 because Microsoft sents encrypted messages by default using the CMS format, you will be unable to decrypt messages on debian from outlook.

Can you please build the default package for the upcoming release with

./config enable-cms

It would be a shame to miss out this important feature and do custom openssl builds without security patches. I heard this might be to late for squeeze, so please reconsider

Thank you
