[tbox-l] building openldap with ssl

[Remco P. <r....@sa...>]

Hi All,

I'm trying to build openldap (with a postgresql backend) and ssl support. 
Unfortunately, I seem to be unable to convince ld (which is /usr/ccs/bin/ld)
to look for libssl.a in /opt/freeware/bin, even with a small test-program,
it fails:

$ env
PATH=/usr/local/bin:/usr/local/pgsql/bin:/usr/bin:/etc:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:/home/remco/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/sbin:.
LDFLAGS=-Wl,-bnoquiet,-blibpath:/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/lib:/lib:/usr/local/lib
CC=gcc
CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/freeware/include -I/usr/local/include
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/lib:/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/local/lib
LIBPATH=/usr/lib:/lib:/opt/freeware/lib:/usr/local/lib
<and some more>

$ gcc $CFLAGS $CPPFLAGS $LDFLAGS -lssl a.c 
ld: 0706-006 Cannot find or open library file: -l ssl
        ld:open(): A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

a.c is as simple as:

char SSL_library_init();

int main() {
SSL_library_init()
; return 0; }

but if I look in /opt/freeware/lib:

$ ls /opt/freeware/lib
ethereal                  libglib-1.2.so.0.0.10     libgtk-1.2.so.0           libpopt.so.0.0.0          libssl.a
libbz2.a                  libglib.so                libgtk-1.2.so.0.9.1       librpm.so                 libz.a
libcrypto-static.a        libgmodule-1.2.so.0       libgtk.so                 librpm.so.0               rpm
libcrypto.a               libgmodule-1.2.so.0.0.10  libintl.a                 librpm.so.0.0.0           rpmpopt
libgdk-1.2.so.0           libgmodule.so             libltdl.a                 librpmbuild.so            rpmrc
libgdk-1.2.so.0.9.1       libgthread-1.2.so.0       libltdl.la                librpmbuild.so.0
libgdk.so                 libgthread-1.2.so.0.0.10  libpopt.so                librpmbuild.so.0.0.0
libglib-1.2.so.0          libgthread.so             libpopt.so.0              libssl-static.a

the same problem occurs if I try to use cc_r as my c-compiler....
