I'm a newbe with openssl, trying to get it installed so I can build
cURL libararies.
My system does not have /dev/random, etc, so I downloaded, built, and
installed the egd daemon. It appears to be running:
$ ll $HOME/.rnd
-rw------- 1 jeff lms 1024 Mar 2 12:30
/home/jeff/.rnd
$ ll /etc/entropy
srwxrwxrwx 1 root sys 0 Mar 2 11:05 /etc/entropy
I then ran configure, make, and make test in the openssl-1.0.0g
directory.
The make test got a lot further this time (I'd tried it a few days ago
before realizing I needed egd), but, alas, after awhile it emitted:
rsa
Setting up TSA test directory...
Creating CA for TSA tests...
Creating a new CA for the TSA tests...
unable to load 'random state'
This means that the random number generator has not been seeded
with much random data.

What did I miss????
Thanks in advance...
