failing in reproducing .so files

[Giovanni Fontana <giovanni.fontana72@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello everybody,

I'm working on tailoring openssl (v1.1.1b) for various purposes.

Trying to compile (sending the command make on the terminal of linux) it looks quite good the building of every files. At the end the files libcrypto.a and libssl.a are produced, but not the ones with the extension .so

At the end of building log I got the following:

/usr/bin/ld:libcrypto.map:0: syntax error in VERSION script
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:754: recipe for target 'libcrypto.so' failed
make[1]: *** [libcrypto.so] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/vm/progetti/OPEN_SSL/OPEN_SSL/openssl-1.1.1b'
Makefile:172: recipe for target 'all' failed
make: *** [all] Error 2

No other errors are shown in the entire log.

Sending "make update" command it will not finish the execution (see below)

vm@vm-VirtualBox:~/progetti/OPEN_SSL/OPEN_SSL_QP/openssl-1.1.1b$ make update
( cd .; /usr/bin/perl VMS/VMSify-conf.pl \
            < apps/openssl.cnf > apps/openssl-vms.cnf )
( cd .; /usr/bin/perl crypto/bn/bn_prime.pl > crypto/bn/bn_prime.h )
( cd .; /usr/bin/perl crypto/objects/objects.pl -n \
            crypto/objects/objects.txt \
            crypto/objects/obj_mac.num \
            > crypto/objects/obj_mac.new && \
    mv crypto/objects/obj_mac.new crypto/objects/obj_mac.num )

          /usr/bin/perl util/ck_errf.pl -strict -internal; \

Any help?

Thanks in advance
