Thread: Build 8.3 with OpenSSL on CentOS 5.x?

Anyone know where the magic incantation is to find the crypto libraries?

I have found readline and zlib, but so far can't find crypto, and
without that, no SSL.....

If the RPM layout is the same as Fedora (which it surely oughta be)
openssl is what provides libcrypto.so.

I think you meant openssl-devel ?

That probably is needed if you're compiling against the library (since
it has the header files) but the actual runtime shared library is in
'openssl'--you don't need 'devel' if you're just installing binaries.
