This got me much further. The next problem was that no matter how many times I re-tried, gnutls would not check out. I finally pulled it down by hand, extracted it to what appears to be the right place, and then continued from the configure phase - that seemed to work. The symptom was 30 minutes of waiting while 0 bytes downloaded and then a timeout. [I must say I would not be patient for 30 minutes of 0 bandwidth].
Continuing on, xmlsec failed to build. I think the errors were all in evp.c fatal error: too many errors emitted, stopping now [-ferror-limit=] 1 warning and 20 errors generated. make[3]: *** [libxmlsec1_openssl_la-evp.lo] Error 1 make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make: *** [all] Error 2 *** Error during phase build of xmlsec: ########## Error running make -j 5 *** [45/72] For this one I have no idea what to try next. > On Jan 21, 2018, at 12:36 PM, John Ralls <jra...@ceridwen.us> wrote: > > > >> On Jan 19, 2018, at 1:46 PM, John Ralls <jra...@ceridwen.us> wrote: >> >> >> >>> On Jan 18, 2018, at 1:26 PM, R.
