I am unable to build libwww because it can't seem to find ssl.h: gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../../.. -I/usr/local/include -I../../../modules/md5 -I../../../modules/expat/xmlparse -I../../../Library/src -I/usr/local/ssl/include -march=i686 -O3 -pipe -c HTSSL.c -fPIC -DPIC -o .libs/HTSSL.lo^M HTSSL.c:32: ssl.h: No such file or directory^M HTSSL.c:33: rand.h: No such file or directory^M And the errors go on and on and on . . . I do have the OpenSSL installed, but it didn't install the includes. Shouldn't the dependendcies change, or something?
I did get libwww to build by linking /usr/lib/openssl/ssl.h and /usr/lib/openssl/rand.h to /usr/lib. It's not a clean method . . .
what version of gcc are you using?
Here's what it says: 101 gideon:~ > gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/2.95.3/specs gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release) I can attach the whole output if you want, though it isn't all that useful, I don't think. The main part is the one I put above.
Mike, There's a masked ebuild for 5.4.0 in portage. Please try that one, and let me know if this problem is present.
Seemant, I tried with the 5.4.0 build and got the same error.
Mike, do me a favour and check your /usr/local/include tree? Sounds like you might have some stray stuff in there, to be honest. I can't duplicate this problem locally, and neither can Azarah... Waiting for your response on that.
You know, I didn't even think of that . . . my /usr/local is from my pre-Gentoo install, and I do have OpenSSL installed there. So I moved my /usr/local/ssl directory, tried it again,and it worked . . okay, so it wasn't a bug. Thanks for the help, and sorry for the false alarm . . . keep up the good work!
