can't seem to link to nonstandard openssl about libssh2 HOT 10 CLOSED

Is that what ldd shows? If so, you need to make sure it picks the right libs at run-time, so it depends on your /etc/ld.so.conf setup. And you can also specify dir with LD_LIBRARY_PATH

from libssh2.

it wasn't a runtime link problem because that soname was the system version of openssl which was not binary compatible with the one I wanted it to use. When I added an additional line forcing it to give a directory path to the linker it then was able to find the correct library.

I'm still not quite sure why this was happening nor why I had to go out of my way to be explicit. I already HAD the runtime AND compile time environmental variables set, and it was defaulting to the system path library anyway.

It looks like "configure" is not honouring the "--with-libssl-prefix" argument:

 ./configure --prefix="/opt/libssh2-1.6.0" --with-openssl --with-libssl-prefix=/opt/openssl-1.0.2d

Gives me:
....
configure: error: No crypto library found!
Try --with-libssl-prefix=PATH
or --with-libgcrypt-prefix=PATH
or --with-wincng on Windows

Despite:

 $ ls /opt/openssl-1.0.2d/{bin,lib}
 /opt/openssl-1.0.2d/bin:
 c_rehash*  openssl*

 /opt/openssl-1.0.2d/lib:
 engines/  lib64@  libcrypto.a  libcrypto.so@  libcrypto.so.1.0.0*  libssl.a  libssl.so@    libssl.so.1.0.0*  pkgconfig/

However, the following works:

  CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/openssl-1.0.2d/include" LDFLAGS="-L/opt/openssl-1.0.2d/lib" ./configure --prefix="/opt/libssh2-1.6.0" --with-openssl --with-libssl-prefix=/opt/openssl-1.0.2d

Hi
I'm trying to compile with openssl git, but it returns the following error:
openssl.c: In function ‘_libssh2_rsa_new’:
openssl.c:71:11: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type ‘RSA {aka struct rsa_st}’

from libssh2.

@superbem that's separate from this issue though, and I'd say most probably because OpenSSL has broken their API (which they've done a lot in their 1.1.x branch).

Changes between 1.0.2g and 1.1.0 [xx XXX xxxx]
*) Made RSA and RSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing RSA
objects have been moved out of the public header files. New
functions for managing these have been added.
[Richard Levitte]

*) Made DSA and DSA_METHOD opaque. The structures for managing DSA objects
have been moved out of the public header files. New functions for managing
these have been added.

so I was right...

Is there somewhere a libssh2 ready for openssl 1.1.0?
