[Viperltoolkit-user] Crypt::SSLeay broken on FC5

[Hayward, M. A \(Mike\) <mha...@av...>]

I had given up on using Perl with VI, even though we currently do for
older versions of VMWare ESX.  This is due to the incompleteness of the
SOAP::Lite module and the complexity of the VMWare WSDL.  I have been
using Ruby since it can at least grok the WSDL.  I'm psyched to see a
Perl Toolkit that should work cleanly.  Unfortunately I'm unable to get
it working due to a dependency on the perl module Crypt::SSLeay which
doesn't seem to work on either 64 or 32 bit recent openssl
implementations.  I'm using FC5 i386 and FC5 x86_64, both of which I can
get to build without compilation errors, but which seg fault with make
test.

What distro are you using?  Any ideas how I can work around the
Crypt::SSLeay problems?  I'm not even using the https capabilities at
this stage for prototyping efforts and normally turn all that off anyway
so I can sniff wire protocols when things break.
