FYI, I was able to get Santuario 2.0.4 to build on our RHEL8 VMs in the following manner using the gcc-12 toolset.
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/data/${USER}/repos/tp/openssl-102u-install/release/lib/pkgconfig:/data/${USER}/repos/tp/xerces-c-3.2.4-install/release/lib/pkgconfig export LDFLAGS="-L/data/${USER}/repos/tp/openssl-102u-install/release/lib" export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/${USER}/repos/tp/xalan_c-1.12-gxp-install/release/lib:/data/${USER}/repos/tp/xerces-c-3.2.4-install/release/lib ./configure \ --prefix=/data/${USER}/repos/tp/santuario-2.0.4-install/release \ --with-xalan=/data/${USER}/repos/tp/xalan_c-1.12-gxp-install/release \ --with-openssl gmake 2>&1 | tee release_build.log gmake install Notice the use of the LDFLAGS variable. I found that to be odd that the -L /usr/lib64 was being put into the g++ command ahead of the -L to link in my openssl 1.0.2 installation. Originally I put the openssl path into LD_LIBRARY_PATH along with the xerces and xalan paths. However that didn't work in the case of openssl. For some reason the custom openssl path I am specifying was always being included as a linker path option after -L /user/lib64 so the build was finding the wrong version of openssl. There could be other ways of accomplishing this but that is what worked after trying about 15 different combinations of environment variables and options to the configure command.

Then the circumstances were different, but I can assure that's not new, I've had to use it in plenty of cases for a very long time.

It doesn't. autoconf does, to find the pkgconfig files to then supply the flags to the g++ commands to use. But they most definitely *cannot* avoid the need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. The linker might be fine with it, but the exec/run tests won't. > Would the "--with-pkgconfigdir" help? It's required if the pkgconfig files aren't in known places. -- Scott
