Hello team I am trying to build OpenSSH 9.8p1 with my SSL installed at /opt/customssl, but it fails. It fails at the configure cmd itself. It does not seem to be honor --with-ssl-dir=/opt/customssl option. What could be the issue here? $ ./configure --with-pam --with-ssl-dir=/opt/customssl <<some output removed>> checking for openssl... /usr/bin/openssl checking for openssl/opensslv.h... yes checking OpenSSL header version... 1010119f (CustomSSL 1.1.1y.7.3.377) checking for OpenSSL_version... yes checking for OpenSSL_version_num... yes checking OpenSSL library version... not found configure: error: OpenSSL library not found. When building OpenSSH 9.6p1: $ ./configure --with-pam --with-ssl-dir=/opt/customssl <<some output removed>> checking for openssl... /opt/customssl/bin/openssl checking openssl/opensslv.h usability... yes checking openssl/opensslv.h presence... yes checking for openssl/opensslv.h... yes checking OpenSSL header version... 1010117f (CustomSSL 1.1.1w.7.2.555) checking for OpenSSL_version... yes checking for OpenSSL_version_num... yes _______________________________________________ openssh-unix-dev mailing list openssh-unix-dev@xxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.mindrot.org/mailman/listinfo/openssh-unix-dev
