>Description:
Man pages should mention the libraries that their routines rely on.
It is missing from the cipher(3) man page. The obvious entries
of -ldes and -lcrypto don't work.
A lot of people are having problems with this. They see the libc
error messages and think crypto is not available. The search engines
show a lot of queries about:
