Hello,
RichSalz suggested I’d send you email about issue I’ve discovered: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/174 There is a repeatable problem with building of openssl cloned with GIT on Windows. When source comes from official distribution all line endings are preserved and remain normal Unix style endings. But when git clones repository it may convert these into windows style endings. MinGW comes bundled with pretty outdated Perl (5.8.8 if memory serves...) which could get confused by these different styles and produce unexpected behavior. This is what happening during execution of Configure script. When ignored ciphers are determined this code is executed: if ($sdirs) { my $dir; foreach $dir (@skip) { s/(\s)$dir /$1/; s/\s$dir$//; } } $sdirs = 0 unless /\\$/; In code $sdirs = 0 unless /\$/; under normal circumstances pattern /\$/ returns 1 if it is still processing these directories but if line ending is not normal Unix style it will return nothing and allow $sdirs = 0. So only the first line of SDIRS= \ gets processed and the rest ... objects \ md2 md4 md5 sha mdc2 hmac ripemd whrlpool \ … is skipped. Result of this error is a Makefile which is trying to process ALL ciphers disregarding no-cipher attributes and will produce this error: gcc -I.. -I../.. -I../asn1 -I../evp -I../../include -DOPENSSL_THREADS -DDSO_WIN32 -mno-cygwin -DL_ENDIAN -DOPENSSL_NO_CAPIENG -fomit-frame-pointer -O3 -march=i486 -Wall -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_PART_WORDS -DOPENSSL_IA32_SSE2 -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_MONT -DSHA1_ASM -DSHA256_ASM -DSHA512_ASM -DMD5_ASM -DRMD160_ASM -DAES_ASM -DWHIRLPOOL_ASM -c -o md2_dgst.o md2_dgst.c In file included from md2_dgst.c:62: ../../include/openssl/md2.h:64:2: #error MD2 is disabled. make[2]: *** [md2_dgst.o] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory As Rich Salz suggested putting "$/= "\r\n"; at the top of the Perl script fixes it. Would you like me to send you a diff file or you could just add this one line on your own? Also, while at it, could you add few items to the ignore file. https://github.com/openssl/openssl/pull/165 +/ms/*.rc +/ms/*.def +/ms/*.mak +/inc32 +/out32* +/tmp32* +/ms/uptable.* These are generated during build on Windows and mark repo as dirty.
