Re: mod_ssl and pkg-config on AIX (Re: [Vote] httpd 2.2.23 release)

2012-09-02 Thread Michael Felt 
The simple part first. AIX has a default install of openssl.
-- however, the name of the library is libssl.a - see attachment for a
filelist of what is included in openssl.base

running the pkg-config command by hand (not the newest version (0.25), so I
will try updating that asap it gives the same error. I could not find a
pkg-config command to tell me it's default search path - maybe it is not
looking in /usr/include/openssh.

Thanks for the reply - I'll update pkg-config and see it that helps.

  Package openssl was not found in the pkg-config search path.
  Perhaps you should add the directory containing `openssl.pc'
  to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
  No package 'openssl' found

 Does AIX come with a bundled version of OpenSSL (under /usr or similar)?

 How does the configure output look like after the checking whether to
 enable
 mod_ssl... line (up to checking whether to enable
 mod_optional_hook_export...)?

 With 2.2.x, configure will try pkg-config for figuring out the -l, -I and
 -L flags - and fall back to -lssl -lcrypto if pkg-config fails for some
 reason:

   if test $ap_ssltk_type = openssl; then
 if test x$ap_ssltk_base != x -a \
 -f ${ap_ssltk_base}/lib/pkgconfig/openssl.pc; then
   dnl Ensure that the given path is used by pkg-config too, otherwise
   dnl the system openssl.pc might be picked up instead.

 PKG_CONFIG_PATH=${ap_ssltk_base}/lib/pkgconfig${PKG_CONFIG_PATH+:}${PKG_CONFIG_PATH}
   export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
 fi
 if test -n $PKGCONFIG; then
   ap_ssltk_libs=`$PKGCONFIG --libs-only-l openssl`
   if test $? -eq 0; then
 pkglookup=`$PKGCONFIG --cflags-only-I openssl`
 APR_ADDTO(CPPFLAGS, [$pkglookup])
 APR_ADDTO(INCLUDES, [$pkglookup])
 pkglookup=`$PKGCONFIG --libs-only-L --libs-only-other openssl`
 APR_ADDTO(LDFLAGS, [$pkglookup])
   else
 ap_ssltk_libs=-lssl -lcrypto `$apr_config --libs`
   fi
 else
   ap_ssltk_libs=-lssl -lcrypto `$apr_config --libs`
 fi
   fi

  However, the packaging proceeds fine.

 It's kind of expected behavior, yes. Replacing

   ap_ssltk_libs=`$PKGCONFIG --libs-only-l openssl`

 by

   ap_ssltk_libs=`$PKGCONFIG --libs-only-l openssl 2/dev/null`

 would suppress the (perhaps confusing) message.

Ok, this also shows that the AIX package does not include a pkg-config
file for OpenSSL (openssl.pc). There's nothing wrong with that, as
long as AIX does not come with a bundled version of pkg-config, there's
no strong argument to provide this file in the openssl.base package.

 running the pkg-config command by hand (not the newest version (0.25), so I
 will try updating that asap it gives the same error. I could not find a
 pkg-config command to tell me it's default search path - maybe it is not
 looking in /usr/include/openssh.

By default it's looking for openssl.pc in the directories
/usr/lib/pkgconfig or /usr/share/pkgconfig (or whatever was specified
for libdir and datadir when pkg-config was compiled).

 Thanks for the reply - I'll update pkg-config and see it that helps.

This won't change anything, I guess. As mentioned before, what you're
seeing is pretty much the expected behavior (the stderr output could
also be silenced by adding --silence-errors to the first $PKGCONFIG
command in acinclude.m4/configure).
