Description Darren Tucker 2006-04-11 22:34:49 AEST
It appears that (some? all?) builds of OpenSSL 0.9.8 require libdl in order to link.  Configure should be smart enough to figure this out but currently isn't.

Also need to be aware of an interaction with --with-pam, since it may move -ldl
int $PAM.
Comment 1 Darren Tucker 2006-08-20 20:20:35 AEST
configure will explicitly check if OpenSSL requires -ldl and add it to LIBS as necessary.
