Ah, right, the examples are built to assume a shared library, and there isn't one, so things break. I'm not certain, but this sounds plausible. Hm. It is a bit strange that the examples requests import symbols, though, since it must have gotten them from somewhere -- but maybe libtool built a broken shared library rather than failing completely? >> possibly if you install a shared libssl+libcrypto it will work, but >> I'm not certain. > > I also think that will solve the problem. At least it is worth a try. Thomas, if my theory above is correct, you could also try ./configure --disable-shared to make sure shared libraries are not used. >> I wonder why it is that mingw builds just work for me, and rarely >> does for anyone else. > > Works fine for me. Thank you! I've been wondering why we have so many recurring mingw questions. /Simon _______________________________________________ libssh2-devel http://cool.haxx.se/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/libssh2-devel
