Re: Two build problems - openssl and plperl on RedHat

Awesome! Thanks for the fast response. Both of your answers lead to me
finding the solution. For anyone in the same boat, here they are:

It turns out that this is a problem with RedHat and Kerberos and not
just openssl. I had the same problem with building php and needed to add
a compiler flag.

The config.log had error messages like:
/usr/include/openssl/kssl.h:134: parse error before "krb5_enctype"

Modified ld.so.conf to add the following two lines:

/usr/local/pgsql/lib
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE

and then ran ldconfig.

Thanks again for the help!
