I compiled it statically on FC3t1 with this change in the openvpn.spec file:
--- cut ---
%configure \
--enable-lzo \
--enable-crypto \
--enable-ssl \
--enable-pthread \
--enable-iproute2 \
--enable-strict \
--disable-profiling \
--enable-mtu-dynamic \
--enable-strict-options \
--disable-dependency-tracking
# <Hack_for_static_build>
perl -i -p -e 's/^LDADD =/LDADD = -static -lssl -lcrypto -lkrb5 -lk5crypto
-lresolv -lcom_err/' Makef
ile
# </Hack_for_static_build>
%{__make} %{?_smp_mflags}
--- cut ---
It worked (openvpn --test-crypto --secret mysecret) on FC3t1, FC2, FC1 and
Mandrake 8.2.
