Hello, I have a nearly 'hand crafted' Linux system on which I use the 2.xx rpm tool. So I tried to compile openssl-0.9.6 with 'rpm -ta openssl-0.9.6.tar.gz. The compilation went good sofar but stops with an error during the test phase. Where can I grep 'bc' or in which rpm-src package is it located? test 4 done starting big number library test, could take a while... test BN_add test BN_sub test BN_lshift1 test BN_lshift (fixed) test BN_lshift test BN_rshift1 test BN_rshift test BN_sqr test BN_mul test BN_div test BN_div_recp test BN_mod test BN_mod_mul test BN_mont test BN_mod_exp test BN_exp running bc Failed! bc: /bin/sh: bc: command not found make[1]: *** [test_bn] Error 255 make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/openssl-0.9.6/test' make: *** [tests] Error 2 Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.40706 (%build) 230.420u 35.090s 5:09.84 85.6% 0+0k 0+0io 628566pf+0w Thank you very much, Dieter BTW Please CC directly to my home address. -- Dieter Nützel Graduate Student, Computer Science University of Hamburg Department of Computer Science Cognitive Systems Group Vogt-Kölln-Straße 30 D-22527 Hamburg, Germany email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] @home: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
