README.md

This directory contains some libraries needed by the Delta Chat core library.

While it is also possible, to use the corresponding system libraries, it may be easier on some OS to use the source from here which compiles fine under "normal" circumstances.

Moreover, using the libraries from this directory may make fixing errors easier (as we use the same code under different Delta Chat implementations). The disadvantage to the system libraries may be that the system may react faster on security fixes than Delta Chat - I think this is true only for Linux. For the same reason, packages using non-sytem libraries may be rejected from some Linux repositories.

Moreover, we've fixed some bugs here and there; these lines are marked by EDIT BY MR then (as soon as we find the time, we should check if such changes could form a pull request to the used library).

OpenSSL

OpenSSL was take from Telegram-FOSS-master-3.10.1(821) and has the version 1.0.1t
removed the following configuration options: OPENSSL_NO_CAMELLIA -DOPENSSL_NO_CAST as Camellia as well as CAST is needed in PGP
