Hi

I want to istall ruby 1.9.1-p378 with openssl support. Here is the
command I used

/configure --with-openssl-dir=/usr/local/ssl


But it returns something like "unrecognized --with-openssl-dir"

How to make it work?

Thanks!

I believe you have to install openssl on your box first.

As a matter of fact, I had the same problem. I installed openssl.

I then went back to following ammar's instructions above, but when I
'make' it barfs.
ruby extconf.rb looks like it produces good results.
but make results in:
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
/usr/local/lib/libssl.a(s2_meth.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a
local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile
with -fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libssl.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [openssl.so] Error 1


I suspected this meant I needed to rebuild my openssl with -fPIC, which
I did, but when I came back to do the make again, it only slightly
changed the error:
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
/usr/local/lib/libcrypto.a(x86_64cpuid.o): relocation R_X86_64_PC32
against symbol `OPENSSL_cpuid_setup' can not be used when making a
shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:
final link failed: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [openssl.so] Error 1

Has anyone else seen this problem? Any suggestion as to how to proceed?

Thanks,

Dave

I rebuilt openssl with the following configure, and it fixed my problem:
/config --prefix=/usr/local --openssldir=/usr/local/openssl shared
