Hi,

I'd like to ask developers and packagers out there, how are the
configuration options --prefix and --openssldir working out for you?

When I look at them today, they look...  well, a bit aged, and could
use a refreshment.  But before doing anything with these options, I'd
like to know how you guys are using them, and how they could be
better.

For Zimbra 8.7, we are doing:

./Configure no-idea enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-ssl2 \
no-hw --prefix=/opt/zimbra/common --libdir=lib --openssldir=/opt/zimbra/common/etc/ssl \
 shared linux-x86_64 -g -O2 -DOPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS

For previous versions of Zimbra, we did:

./Configure no-idea enable-ec_nistp_64_gcc_128 no-mdc2 no-rc5 no-ssl2 no-hw --prefix=/opt/zimbra/openssl-$(OPENSSL_VERSION) --libdir=lib \
       shared $(PLAT) -g -O2 -DOPENSSL_NO_HEARTBEATS; \

So we've only just recently started using openssldir, but it does exactly what we want it to do. ;)
