For the time being, I could live with 1), but I couldn't get it to configure on my OSX laptop... It couldn't find my pgsql installation... Even though it was looking in the right place!
does pgsql have to be compiled with ssl for pgadmin to work?
No, not necessarily. If SSL is not defined, you can go unencrypted. If you compile for SSL, but SSL isn't present in libpq, a single unresolved reference PQgetssl should show up.
