OpenSSL Prepare OpenSSL for compilation: ./config --prefix=/usr \ --openssldir=/etc/ssl \ --libdir=lib \ shared \ zlib-dynamic Compile the package: make To test the results, issue: make test One test 30-test_afalg.t is known to fail on some kernel configurations (it apparently assumes certain unspecified crypto options have been selected). Install the package: sed -i '/INSTALL_LIBS/s/libcrypto.a libssl.a//' Makefile make MANSUFFIX=ssl install If desired, install the documentation: mv -v /usr/share/doc/openssl /usr/share/doc/openssl-&openssl-version; cp -vfr doc/* /usr/share/doc/openssl-&openssl-version; Installed programs Installed libraries Installed directories c_rehash and openssl libcrypto.{so,a} and libssl.{so,a} /etc/ssl, /usr/include/openssl, /usr/lib/engines and /usr/share/doc/openssl-&openssl-version; Short Descriptions c_rehash is a Perl script that scans all files in a directory and adds symbolic links to their hash values. c_rehash openssl is a command-line tool for using the various cryptography functions of OpenSSL's crypto library from the shell. It can be used for various functions which are documented in man 1 openssl. openssl libcrypto.so implements a wide range of cryptographic algorithms used in various Internet standards. The services provided by this library are used by the OpenSSL implementations of SSL, TLS and S/MIME, and they have also been used to implement OpenSSH, OpenPGP, and other cryptographic standards. libcrypto.so libssl.so implements the Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocol. It provides a rich API, documentation on which can be found by running man 3 ssl. libssl.so
