Thread: undefined reference to `SSL_new' when linking with lib-pq.a version 7.4.7-2

Hi,
I am porting a g++ application using lib-pq.a, which compile and link 
fine on MAC OS X, on linux Debian Sarge.
The link step failed on this error:

Did somebody have an idea how to fix the problem?

Many thanks.
