Hello. Different versions of OpenSSL install shared libraries with different names, e.g. libssl.0.9.8.extension and libssl. 1.0.0.extension. However, engines are always installed under $prefix/ lib/engines. Having said that,

a) do/will engines follow the same semantics of OpenSSL versions, i.e., API/ABI compatibility? b) would it be possible to have a Configure parameter, e.g. --with- engines-dir, to specify the location of engines (ENGINESDIR)? That would allow coexistence of different OpenSSL versions engine-wise.


Cheers,
