I built 2.38.0 rc1 from the tar file today. One of the configure options I used was "--with-openssl=<path>/openssl/3.0.5". As expected, configure reported configure: Setting OPENSSLDIR to<path>/openssl/3.0.5 When it got as far as linking git-imap-send, the link command pointed at the subdirectory "lib" within the openssl/3.0.5 installation. gcc ... -o git-imap-send ... -L<path>/openssl/3.0.5/lib ... However, this version of openssl put the libraries into a "lib64" subdirerctory rather than into a "lib" subdirectory so the link failed. An easy workaround is to put a symlink from lib64 to lib inside the openssl directory. It would be nice, though, if the configure command could figure this out automatically. ..
