Folks, Just to clairfy the question a bit more..
We are attempting to build a solaris package for solaris 2.6 that contains zlib, openssl, and openssh for our internal use. While compiling the openssl software using the parameters below on a Sparc Ultra 5 system we noticed that the crypto library links to a solaris platform specific library "/usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-5_10/lib/libc_psr.so.1." which only exists on Ultra5 and 10 systems. If we create a package of these compiled binaries and try to install the package on a sparc 20 it doesnt work because libcrypto cant find the platform specific library. Any idea how we can get around this? We obviously cant distribute the platform specific library with the package. Shouldnt we be able to compile openssl once on any solaris 2.6 host and have it portable to all other solaris 2.6 sparc systems? I have never heard of a software package that was plaform specific. We are using gcc to compile everything. Thanks for any help you can offer..
