Hi all,

I have been trying to install gt5.2.1 from source on my laptop that is
running Ubuntu 11.10, but I have been experience some errors. This is what
I have done so far.
*as root*
create two directories '~/globus' and '/usr/local/globus-5.2.1'
Placed gt5.2.1-all-source-installer in the newly created directory
'~/globus' and then untarred it.
I then created a user name 'globus' and changed the owner of the directory
'gt5.2.1-all-source-installer'  to globus
   chown -R globus:globus gt5.2.1-all-source-installer
and also for /usr/local/globus-5.2.1 (which will be the installation
directory)
   chown -R globus;globus /usr/local/globus-5.2.1

*as the globus user*
inside the gt5.2.1-all-source-installer directory I ran
   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/globus-5.2.1
   make
which then produced the following error
   ...
   checking openssl/opensslv.h usability... yes
   checking openssl/opensslv.h presence... yes
   checking for openssl/opensslv.h... yes
   configure: error: *** Can't find recent OpenSSL libcrypto (see
config.log for details) ***

I looked at config.log but didn't find anything interesting in there. I
also have all the listed required software (gcc, tar, sed,
make, libltdl-dev, libssl-dev, perl, perl-modules, perl-base, and
libxml-parser-perl) although I believe the one pertinent to this is
libssl-dev which is version 1.0.0e-2ubuntu4.6. I don't know what else to
do, any help would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Felix
