Hello I found that ruby 1,8 contains ssl bindings, which build fine against the OS X supplied openssl. Because there is an openssl in fink it should BuildDepend on that to get always the same openssl - the one from fink.
But this makes it a crypro package. Although the crypto binaries can be split into a separat package it cannot build on non-crypto system. A non-crypto variant is obtained by removing the directory containing the ssl extension in the BuildScript and not creating the ssl splitoff. With the variant mechanism (which is new to me) one can make conditional BuildDepends and check if the crypto extension should be removed in the BuildScript. But the variants seem to be more suited for the case when an additional library is linked into the package binaries, not when an additional splitoff is to be created. Is it possible to make a conditional splitoff? How is the correct variant going to be selected if user requests one of the packages that are common for both variants (ie ruby)?
