Hello, I have noted the following failure in the configure script for 3.8p1. The apparent error is -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- configure:5911: cc -E conftest.c "configure", line 5908.10: 1506-296 (S) #include file <zlib.h> not found. configure:5917: $? = 1 configure: failed program was: #line 5907 "configure" #include "confdefs.h" #include <zlib.h> configure:5936: result: no configure:5941: error: *** zlib.h missing - please install first or check config .log ** -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The configure command (cc -E) is being invoked without the option -I/usr/local/include. This is not a problem with my previous (and current) copy of 3.7.p2. (I reconfigured, and regenerated for SSL 9.7.d ). I can bypass the problem by setting CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/local/include but wonder if I have missed some change to instructions since I have to do this with 3.8p1 but did not for 3.7p2. The environment is AIX 5.1 ML005, VisualAge/C/C++ v5 (fixes current as of 11/03) Zlib 1.1.4 (zlib.h is in /usr/local/include) configure options are ; ./configure --with-tcp-wrappers --with-prngd-socket=/var/run/egd-pool Has anyone else seen this ?? Thanks , Steve Steve Hall (shall at nebraska.edu) Computing Services Network University of Nebraska

If your zlib is in /usr/local (it sounds like it is) you can use "./configure --with-zlib=/usr/local" -- Darren Tucker (dtucker at zip.com.au) GPG key 8FF4FA69 / D9A3 86E9 7EEE AF4B B2D4 37C9 C982 80C7 8FF4 FA69 Good judgement comes with experience. Unfortunately, the experience usually comes from bad judgement.

Users can do LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" \ CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" ./configure if needed. -- Tim Rice Multitalents (707) 887-1469 tim at multitalents.net
I too am experiencing this issue. both
/usr/local/libz.a & /usr/lib/libz.a are linked to
/opt/freeware/lib/libz.a. While the compile seems to
work locally, but when i install ssh on another
machine i get:
==================Symbol resolution failed for ssh because:
Symbol __strtollmax (number 157) is not
exported from dependent
module /usr/lib/libc.a(shr.o).
Examine .loader section symbols with the 'dump -Tv'
command.
==================how is this resolved? Compile options:
./configure LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"
CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" --prefix=/usr
--with-tcp-wrappers
-Thanks,
Ryan

Correction: configure will search /usr/local *if* it
doesn't find zlib
elsewhere. You have zlib.a in /usr/lib, so this
doesn't happen
