Howdy all,

The whole toolchain/bundle thread has sparked
me to express a frustration I've had of late.

Lately, the default for EB has been to use the
OpenSSL included with the system (via openssl-devel
on RHEL).  This makes sense in terms of keeping
up to date with needed security fixes.

However, on RHEL, openssl-devel requires zlib-devel.
And unless great care is taking during the configure_step,
most packages will invariably pick up the version in /usr
and not the one at $EBROOTZLIB.

I work around this by "yum install openssl-devel" and
then "rpm -e zlib-devel --nodeps".  But I'm not sure that's
the best solution.

What would be a better one?????
