Notice the build failure is for libtorrent-rasterbar <at> 1.2 (the
libtorrent-rasterbar-1.2 variable).  My patch updated
libtorrent-rasterbar <at> 2 to 2.0.11 (the libtorrent-rasterbar variable).

So this is my fault, I did not realize that libtorrent-rasterbar-1.2
inherits from libtorrent-rasterbar, so the change in check phase will
affect both.  Sorry about that.

Luckily there is a new release (1.2.20) which seems to contain the
extension of certificate expiry.  After breakfast I will do the update,
test it and send a patch here.

Tomas
