Thanks, I couldn't seem to get that route working (didn't seem to create
the libssl.so.1.1 files, so would get error while loading shared libraries:
libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory )
I think I'm misunderstanding some of the bits you've posted though around
shlib_variant, so I will have a read to get a better understanding.
In the meantime I think I've just got it working ok with exporting
LD_LIBRARY_PATH and CC=gcc -std=gnu99 -lrt -I/usr/local/ssl/
-L/usr/local/ssl/lib -Wl,-rpath,/usr/local/ssl/lib (not even sure those are
correct just atm)
(and removed entry from /etc/ld.so.conf ) It's maybe not ideal, but may be
ok until I can understand whats happening a little more.
Thanks for the help and the pointer
