greetings all,

i am having a problem with the openssl port (FreeBSD 4.7-RELEASE). i
have installed it and openssh (which works fine) using the ports, but
when i try to install several other programs that depend on openssl
(sylpheed-claws, vtun), they fail and tell me that they can't find
openssl:


fbsd# pwd
/usr/ports/net/vtun
fbsd# make
This port requires the OpenSSL library, which is part of
the FreeBSD crypto distribution but not installed on your
machine. Please see the "OpenSSL" section in the handbook
(at "http://www.FreeBSD.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/openssl.html
", for instance) for instructions on how to obtain and install the FreeBSD
OpenSSL distribution.
*** Error code 1

Stop.


but the system seems to know that it is installed:

fbsd# pkg_info |grep openssl
openssl-0.9.6g_1    SSL and crypto library
fbsd# portversion |grep openssl
openssl                     =

i have deinstalled/reinstalled with no luck. i also just ran cvsup and
got the same results. the Makefile uses ${OPENSSLBASE}, and on a
suggestion from someone else, i tried to set an environment variable of
OPENSSLBASE to /usr before running make, and also added
"OPENSSLBASE=/usr" to /etc/defaults/make.conf but neither helped. any
other ideas are appreciated. TIA.

ken
