I've tried implementing Junio's suggestions, and it just doesn't work. It gives me the same error as it gave me earlier. Here's the error: ----- LINK git-imap-send imap-send.o: In function `verify_hostname': /git/imap-send.c:252: undefined reference to `sk_num' /git/imap-send.c:254: undefined reference to `sk_value' /git/imap-send.c:260: undefined reference to `sk_pop_free' /git/imap-send.c:260: undefined reference to `sk_pop_free' imap-send.o: In function `ssl_socket_connect': /git/imap-send.c:287: undefined reference to `SSL_library_init' /git/imap-send.c:288: undefined reference to `SSL_load_error_strings' /git/imap-send.c:290: undefined reference to `SSLv23_method' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status Makefile:2454: recipe for target 'git-imap-send' failed make: *** [git-imap-send] Error 1 ----- >From my limited understanding of OpenSSL API's, I reckon all these errors might be because of the errors around 'SSL_library_init' and 'SSL_load_error_strings'. Both these functions are called before 'verify_hostname' is ever called. StackOverflow suggested ([1]) to add tags during compilation, but I dont think that'd work here. What should I do? Would love it if you could guide me out. Thanks!
