I see that Curl has a configure option for pointing it at an OpenSSL
installation, but so far I have been unable to make this work. With the
latest versions of both packages, and OpenSSL successfully built and
installed, the Curl configure step can't find the (perfectly good and fine)
OpenSSL installation.
Questions - is this mechanism still supported? Are there known good versions
of Curl and OpenSSL which do this dance successfully? Is there another route
from Curl to OpenSSL built from source?
It is very much supported. I use it myself very frequently and we have CI
builds using it.
1. build OpenSSL
./config enable-tls1_3 --prefix=/home/daniel/build-openssl
make
make install
2. build curl
LDFLAGS="-Wl,-rpath,$HOME/build-openssl/lib" \
./configure --with-ssl=$HOME/build-openssl
3. Smile
The LDFLAGS trick is of course not strictly necessary, but is convenient.
