Description Rabbe Fogelholm 2007-11-13 23:26:00 UTC

When trying to bootstrap prefix Portage on a SUSE 9 Enterprise box I noticed that the `emerge --oneshot --nodeps wget' can fail, complaining that OpenSSL is not present. OpenSSL is however present in the sense that it is installed by the system installer (Yast2), so maybe the test for OpenSSL of the Gentoo wget package should be refined.

My workaround for now is to do `env USE=-ssl emerge --oneshot --nodeps wget', hoping that things will get sorted out when dependencies are honoured later on in the bootstrapping process.

Just to avoid any confusion, this is not the same SUSE box as that of bug 197413. And right now I don't know why the wget+OpenSSL problem appears on this SUSE box only.
