Did you modify the configuration scripts to set up the single library or
did you just edit the makefiles directly? That is the issue I am looking into
now. (If you have anything you want to share, we'd love to see it.)

We ship a single "libopenssl.so" to get around some shared-library issues (symbol conflicts between netscape's LDAP library and OpenSSL, if I recall correctly). As a side effect, it also means that people running our code get *our* version of the libraries, and not whatever they happen to have installed in /usr/lib :-) The .a's are just .a's; there's no reason why they couldn't be combined into a single .a. There aren't any filename conflicts, for example. -- Harald Koch <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> "It takes a child to raze a village." -Michael T.
