Ok, I've sat quietly watching for a while today, but this is going a bit
far. OpenSSL is a program. It is also libraries.
If you want to use a version of ssl other than the one supplied with
your system, you could install it in a non-standard location, then
compile openssh using that installation:
openssl-0.9.6a# ./config --openssldir=/usr/local/myopenssl
openssl-0.9.6a# make
openssl-0.9.6a# make test
openssl-0.9.6a# make install
This will install the openssl libraries, binaries, etc. in
/usr/local/myopenssl, which you can then use to compile openssh
openssh-2.5.2p2# ./configure --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/myopenssl
openssh-2.5.2p2# make
openssh-2.5.2p2# make install
If you are going to call someone out in public on a bit of technical
wording, using caps and asterisks, at least be *RIGHT*.
