>Description:
crypto(3) has these xrefs:
openssl_blowfish(3), cast(3), openssl_des(3), idea(3),
rc2(3), openssl_rc4(3), rc5(3)
openssl_dsa(3), openssl_dh(3), openssl_rsa(3)
x509(3), x509v3(3)
openssl_hmac(3), md2(3), md4(3), openssl_md5(3),
openssl_mdc2(3), openssl_ripemd(3), openssl_sha(3)
openssl_err(3), openssl_threads(3), openssl_rand(3)
asn1(3), openssl_bio(3), openssl_evp(3), pem(3),
pkcs7(3), pkcs12(3)
openssl_bn(3), openssl_buffer(3), openssl_lhash(3),
objects(3), stack(3), txt_db(3)
many of these that have no openssl_ prefix don't exist, but
*do* exist with the openssl_ prefix. eg, x509, pkcs7.. it
would be nice if those that don't exist were either added or
removed from this list, and those that are wrong, have their
name correctedl.

try to work out how openssl in netbsd works.

Ugh, this is external software that we import. I'm not gonna touch
it; the last time I tried to fix something in an imported subsystem,
I got flamed.

some of these have been fixed in newer openssl. missing manuals
from crypto(3) are now:
cast(3), idea(3), rc2(3), rc5(3), x509(3) [*], x509v3(3),
asn1(3), pem(3) [*], pkcs7(3) [*], pkcs12(3) [*], objects(3),
stack(3) and txt_db(3).
[*] these ones are available as "openssl_xxx" but call themselves
"xxx" internally, eg:
PEM (3) - PEM routines
.mrg.

can't we just fix crypto(3) man page ? whenever someone imports a new openssl
version they will probably have a conflict but they will be able to handle
it.

The openssl man pages unfortunately still appear to be a mess, at least
on netbsd-5. For instance rc2(3) is referenced which doesn't exist
(nor openssl_rc2(3)), openssl_des(3) is referenced and openssl_des(3)
and des(3) exist with conflicting information (mostly case changes in
prototypes)...
There might be other cases and this should ideally be systematically
fixed, but upstream also has to commit any patch we produce about this?
Thanks,
