Your goal is to do that dynamically now, right? > > At the moment I am starting again but this time trying: > > + building and installing the latest openssl with shared libraries > + building and installing apr and apr-util to use latest openssl > + building and installing httpd to use all the above With shared libraries then, once the first point is done (say in /opt/openssl), the simplest way is for the two others is to: 1. tar xf httpd-2.4.12.tar.bz2 2. cd httpd-2.4.12 3. tar xf extract apr-1.5.2.tar.bz2 -C srclib && mv srclib/apr-1.5.2 srclib/apr 4. tar xf extract apr-util-1.5.4.tar.bz2 -C srclib && mv srclib/apr-util-1.5.2 srclib/apr-util 4. ./buildconf 5. ./configure --prefix=/opt/httpd --with-included-apr --with-ssl=/opt/openssl "LDFLAGS=-Wl,-rpath,/opt/openssl/lib" ... (the LDFLAGS can be omitted if you plan to somehow include /opt/openssl/lib in LD_LIBRARY_PATH at runtime, to avoid conflct with system's own libs) 6. make && make install Hope I'm not off topic (you meant building statically).
