If you have a (linux or solaris) system with openssl installed in /usr and a second copy installed elsewhere (e.g., /opt) and you want a cmake project to find the elsewhere version, no matter what you try it finds the system copy. (In other words, OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR has no effect.) Are we missing something or is this a bug in FindOpenSSL? We've tested cmake 2.8.5, 2.8.8, and 2.8.11 without any luck.
Thanks, Jeff.
