Description Mike Hostetler 2002-06-17 11:08:06 UTC

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?

Comment 1 Mike Hostetler 2002-06-18 08:52:04 UTC

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?

Comment 3 Mike Hostetler 2002-06-18 13:12:43 UTC

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.

Comment 5 Mike Hostetler 2002-06-20 09:23:21 UTC

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.

Comment 7 Mike Hostetler 2002-06-20 22:32:44 UTC

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!
