Hi, Raphaël. At last I've been able to compile pgadmin using your patch,
thank you. In my first attempt, I got an undefined reference to PQgetssl
(the same error that Dirk Dil reports on the thread you pointed), but I
solved it recompiling Postgresql with ssl support.

Just one more comment: Though the --enable-static option is selected, the
binary you get is still using shared libraries. The makefile invokes
"-lcrypt  -lssl -lcrypto", which, as far as I know, make gcc use shared
libraries when "--static" option is not used. Is this a security issue? I
edited the makefile and replaced them with their corresponding static
libraries. The compilation went fine. Did I something wrong or it's OK to do
that?

Regards
