Description Haroon Rafique 2002-10-18 12:46:40 UTC

The openssl 0.9.6g ebuild (dev-libs/openssl/openssl-0.9.6g.ebuild) has the
following line in it:

./config --prefix=/usr --openssldir=/usr/lib/ssl shared threads || die

It would be much more convenient if --openssldir=/etc/ssl was used instead. This
way it would be part of CONFIG_PROTECT and hence subsequent updates will not
overwrite the openssl.cnf file (something that most people would like to customize).

So, the new line would be:

./config --prefix=/usr --openssldir=/etc/ssl shared threads || die
