lib to OpenSSL search path for Solaris. (original) (raw)

In the top level setup.py there is a list of directories searched for the OpenSSL libraries.

   ssl_libs = find_library_file(self.compiler, 'ssl',lib_dirs,
                                 ['/usr/local/ssl/lib',
                                  '/usr/contrib/ssl/lib/'
                                 ] )

Detect SSL support for the socket module (via _ssl)

    search_for_ssl_incs_in = [
                          '/usr/local/ssl/include',
                          '/usr/contrib/ssl/include/'

On Solaris 10, (but not Open Solaris), OpenSSL comes as part of the operating system, but the libraries reside in /usr/sfw/lib.

drkirkby@kestrel:~$ ls /usr/sfw/lib/libssl* /usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so /usr/sfw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.7

Could you simply add /usr/sfw/lib to the library search path, so they are found on Solaris 10?

The include files reside in /usr/sfw/include/openssl

on Solaris 10.
