tinc - Jun 2003 - help with compiling on Mac OSX

Hello -

I'm a complete newbie with command line stuff and i'm trying to compile
the tinc source on osx
10.2.6 but i'm getting this error when i use ./configure:

...
...
checking for SHA1_version in -lcrypto... yes
checking for RAND_pseudo_bytes... yes
checking for OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms... yes
checking for dlopen... no
checking for dlopen in -ldl... no
configure: error: OpenSSL depends on libdl.

I don't really know what it means.   I'm guessing it has to do with the
fact that i'm missing zlib?

In the manual, it says to download zlib with Fink.  I've got fink and the
findcommander (GUI fink),
but zlib isn't in the list of packages (all the other ones like openssl
i've installed thru fink).  can
someone help me download it using the command line?

or if someone has a macbinary to share, i would greatly appreciate it.
thanks!

Arthur

The error message clearly indicates you're missing libdl, it doesn't say
anything about zlib. Apparently dlopen() is not in the standard
libraries, which is strange because I do remember compiling tinc
succesfully on MacOS/X, but perhaps that was an earlier version
(10.1.x?) but I can't remember.

I hope someone else on this list who has access to a machine running the
latest MacOS/X can try to solve this problem, since I don't have access
to a machine with MacOS/X at the moment.
