avoid getpass when not used
some systems (like android's bionic) do not provide getpass. you can
disable ENABLE_CLI_PASSWORD_AUTH & ENABLE_CLI_INTERACT_AUTH to avoid
its use (and rely on pubkey auth), but the link still fails because
the support file calls getpass. do not define this func if both of
those auth methods are not used.

Tech Note 0005 Minimizing Code Space Tom St Denis Introduction ------------ Tweaking... You can disable whole classes of algorithms on the command line with the LTC_NO_* defines. From there you can manually turn on what you want to enable. The following build with GCC 3.4.4 on an AMD64 box gets you AES, CTR mode, SHA-256, HMAC, Yarrow, full RSA PKCS #1, PKCS #5 and ASN.1 DER in roughly 40KB of code (49KB on the ARMv4) (both excluding the math library). CFLAGS="-DLTC_NO_CIPHERS -DLTC_NO_HASHES -DLTC_NO_PRNGS -DLTC_NO_MACS -DLTC_NO_MODES -DLTC_NO_PK -DRIJNDAEL -DLTC_CTR_MODE -DSHA256 \ -DLTC_HMAC -DYARROW -DMRSA -DMPI -DTFM_DESC -DARGTYPE=3 -Os -DLTC_SMALL_CODE -fomit-frame-pointer" make IGNORE_SPEED=1 Obviously this won't get you performance but if you need to pack a crypto lib in a device with limited means it's more than enough... Neato eh?
