I am having trouble installing the current openssl on an older slackware 10.2 linux distribution. As indicated below it came with a /lib/libcrypt-2.3.5.so dated 2005-09-10 I downloaded and tried to install openssl-0.9.8i.tar.gz As indicated by the directory listings below only part of it seems to build and install, although I see no error messages anywhere.
I've looked at the other postings, and no one seems to be having any issues like this. Am I doing something really stupid? Below are some directory listings of what's installed after I running ./config, make, and INSTALL The instructions said I should replace the /usr/include/openssl/*.h with the new ones. Actually I think it said delete them, but they didn't get installed so I copied them in manually. If you look at the stuff below, what I have is the originally distributed 2005 and 2006 files still in place for libcrypt* Conversely the /usr/local/ssl directory which didn't exist before was created and populated, but libcrypto.so.0.9.8 doesn't seem to exist althought there is a link to it! My man pages for openssl and libcrypto after the install do not reflect the new version. What is going on? ls -l /lib/libcry* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 25168 2005-09-10 18:05 /lib/libcrypt-2.3.5.so* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 2006-03-18 06:49 /lib/libcrypt.so.1 -> libcrypt-2.3.5.so* ls -l /usr/lib/libcry* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22400 2005-09-10 18:05 /usr/lib/libcrypt.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 23 2006-03-18 06:49 /usr/lib/libcrypt.so -> ../../lib/libcrypt.so.1* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22850 2005-09-10 18:05 /usr/lib/libcrypt_p.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1965202 2005-06-13 00:14 /usr/lib/libcrypto.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 2006-03-18 06:52 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so -> libcrypto.so.0* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2006-03-18 06:52 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 -> libcrypto.so.0.9.7* -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 1047016 2005-06-13 00:14 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7* ls -l /usr/local/ssl/lib drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-10-05 16:25 engines/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2229400 2008-10-05 16:25 libcrypto.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2008-10-05 16:25 libcrypto.so -> libcrypto.so.0.9.8 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 370796 2008-10-05 16:25 libssl.a lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 15 2008-10-05 16:25 libssl.so -> libssl.so.0.9.8* -r-xr-xr-x 1 root root 1305706 2008-10-05 16:25 libssl.so.0.9.8* drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 2008-10-05 13:45 pkgconfig/ similarly in my build directory I have the link to libcrypto.so.0.9.8 but the file itself doesn't seem to exist. ls -l /usr/src/openssl libcry* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2229400 2008-10-05 15:55 /usr/src/openssl-0.9.8i/libcrypto.a -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 250 2008-10-05 16:00 /usr/src/openssl-0.9.8i/libcrypto.pc lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2008-10-05 16:23 /usr/src/openssl-0.9.8i/libcrypto.so -> libcrypto.so.0.9.8 total 3840 ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
