Hi Harlan,
There are two popular build tools in the scientific software field that
build software and a modulefile to use it: Spack [1] and EasyBuild [2].
I have quickly look at both and I do not find track of openssl in the build
recipe for Perl on Spack, but in EasyBuild the openssl dependency is
clearly expressed.
So I would suggest you to do a small test setup of EasyBuild, try to build
Perl and some of its CPAN modules (like Net::SSLeay that clearly needs
openssl) and look at the obtained modulefiles and at how things are built.
Just looking at the build recipe for Net::SSLeay [3], there is some
pre-config option define:
'preconfigopts': "export OPENSSL_PREFIX=$EBROOTOPENSSL && ",
Regards,
Xavier
