patch to update the fetchmail port from 6.4.10 to 6.4.11

fetchmail 6.4.10's configure script causes a regression that lets it skip TLS1.2 and TLS1.3 tests if the SSL library isn't linked with -lssl, but - for instance - as /usr/lib/libssl.so as happens on FreeBSD.

While - given a sufficient implementation of libssl - the _automatic_ negotiation of TLS v1.2 and v1.3 still works, fetchmail 6.4.10 prints bogus warnings about the SSL's implementation quality in some places (reproducer: fetchmail -V).

6.4.11 fixes that.

Test builds succeeded in my poudriere:

11.3-i386, 11.3-amd64, 12.1-i386, 12.1-amd64, 12.1-mips64, 12.1-arm64.

Revised patch for 6.4.11 update

With the previous patch, I get a size mismatch during fetch. I also note that the SHA256 in the attached doesn't match the one in the fetchmail-6.4.11 release announcement. If I regenerate distinfo via `make makesum`, the newly generated hash matches the one from the release announcement and then the fetch succeeds.

After that small tweak, reflected in the attached "revised patch", mail/fetchmail passes 'poudriere testport' on both i386 and amd64 under 11.3, 11.4, and 12.1 for the following configurations:
  - Default settings 
  - Default settings, build as non-root
  - ssl=base, GSSAPI_MIT
  - ssl=base, GSSAPI_NONE
  - ssl=openssl
  - ssl=openssl with SSL2 and SSL3 disabled
  - ssl=openssl, GSSAPI_NONE
  - ssl=libressl
  - ssl=libressl, GSSAPI_NONE

mail/fetchmailconf passes 'poudriere testport' on both i386 and amd64 under
11.3, 11.4, and 12.1 with default settings

I've added a 'fetchmail -V' invocation inside the script run w/in the `testport` to check where the TLS v1.3 warnings appear. I see them with OpenSSL 1.0.2s, OpenSSL 1.0.2u, and LibreSSL. AFAICT, these warning are all correct.
Comment 2 Matthias Andree freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2020-09-04 08:37:48 UTC
Corey, thanks for the distinfo remark. I have been trying to reproduce what caused this, but it appears that I've cleaned out the tarball I used for "make makesum" so cannot find the actual difference any more.

In one other 6.4.11 computer in a different build directory of my Linux computer, the tarball differs in the fetchmail-FAQ.pdf (which is auto-generated apparently in a non-reproducible manner) - and the README file in the uploaded tarball (that your SHA256 matches) is broken and contains a fragment from NEWS.  The tarball is also auto-generated, and I've identified the cause: my dist-tools/makerelease.pl script would write a "README" file into the output directory, which then gets picked up next time (instead of the original README from the repo).

I have fixed that script and released 6.4.12.

mail/fetchmail port update to 6.4.12

This passed test builds in my poudriere for these jails:
11.3-RELEASE-p7         amd64         
11.3-RELEASE-p7         i386          
12.1-RELEASE 1201000    mips.mips64   
12.1-RELEASE-p3 1201000 arm64.aarch64 
12.1-RELEASE-p3         i386          
12.1-RELEASE-p4         amd64        

WRT your TLS v1.3 complaints, it is expected that OpenSSL 1.0.2* and LibreSSL are not offering TLS 1.3, but OpenSSL 1.1.1 does.

Comment 5 Corey Halpin 2020-09-04 14:18:13 UTC
(In reply to Matthias Andree from comment #3)

This looks good to me, continues to pass `poudriere testport` for the list of configurations mentioned above, and is working nicely on my machines when installed.

I approve the patch. Thank you!

  mail/fetchmail: update to 6.4.12 (regression fixes)

  Fixes these regressions:
  - Misleading false complaints that TLSv1.3 support were missing from the
    system but still auto-negotiating it (broken in 6.4.9, fixed in 6.4.11).
  - README contained NEWS fragments (broken since c. 1 year/c. 6.4.2,
    fixed in 6.4.12) instead of the actual contents.
    (This was also the reason to skip 6.4.11).

  For the potential MFH 6.4.8 -> 6.4.12, 6.4.9 also
  adds to the manual page which has is used for fingerprints, MD5,
  and adds a Romanian-language translation by Florentina Musat.

  mail/fetchmail: update to 6.4.12 (from 6.4.8)

  (Note this isn't the usual MFH changelog as that doesn't make sense in this
  particular case; head/ had some churn around a regression in 6.4.10 that
  this MFH-of-two-changeset nicely skips over.)

  Add: Romanian-language translation by Florentina Musat

  Add: manual page now mentions that --sslfingerprint hash is of MD5 type.

  Fix: README contained NEWS fragments (broken since c. 1 year/c. 6.4.2,
  fixed in 6.4.12) instead of the actual contents.

  Update: the > 2^31 "long long" local patch so it patches the right place of the
  NEWS file.
