I think the first thing most people install is ssl/ssh so you c/an ssh into the box and run additional builds from another workstation that has a gui. That said, I think you are right about ssl being needed for xorg-server. In configure is the comment: # OpenSSL used for SHA1 hashing in render/glyph.c, but we don't need all of # the OpenSSL libraries, just libcrypto If you logged the configure command, look for the message: error: Package requirements (openssl) were not met: ... I'm surprised that configure didn't fail. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
