[GnomeMeeting-list] "New subscriber to the list" and "issues with openssl-0.9.7-5 solved"

[Mirco Müller <mirco pool informatik rwth-aachen de>]

Hello there everybody!

	I'm new to this mailing-list. Some may know me from lurking on 
#gnomemeeting at irc.freenode.net. For others a look at 
http://www.macslow.de/myself.php does a quick introduction of myself... 
if anyone is actually interested that is :)

	The main purpose of this posting is sharing my newly gained knowledge 
on the problems openssl-0.9.7-5 makes, if one tries to compile a recent 
version of gm with it installed. The configure-script of 0.96.0 and 
2003-03-04 wasn't able to find my ssl.h and failed all the time. Without 
going into the gory details of the issues involved, here is the solution 
that make things work for me (also big thanks to Matthias from 
#gnomemeeting, who helped me today and guided me in the right direction):

If this fails:

	./configure
	...
	checking for OpenSSL includes...
	checking ssl.h usability... no
	checking ssl.h presence... no
	...

try this:

	CFLAGS=-I/usr/kerberos/include CPPFLAGS=$CFLAGS CXXFLAGS=$CFLAGS 
./configure

	Afterwards "make" starts compiling gm. It works for 0.96.0 and 
2003-03-04. The compile-time problems I have with it now are a different 
story.

	I hope this is helpful for other people or might be worth mentioning on 
the FAQ or is an aid for Damian and the other developers for further 
tweaking and tuning the build process and docs.

Best regards...
