Re: Help needed for libssl ABI change

[Gianfranco Costamagna <locutusofborg@debian.org>]

For some reasons looks like you are using static libssl.a library.
I don't know if this is the issue, but with static library libssl.a and dynamic libcrypto, I don't know how much the linker will be happy to mix them together



quoting the upstream makefile
         ifneq ($(wildcard /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.a),)
           L+=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl.a
         else
           ifneq ($(wildcard /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.a),)
              L+=/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.a
           else
              L+=-lssl
           endif

(so for x86_64-linux-gnu only libssl.a is taken)

       ifneq ($(wildcard /opt/local/lib/libcrypto.a),)
          L+=/opt/local/lib/libcrypto.a
       else
          ifneq ($(wildcard /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.a),)
             L+=/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.a
          else
             L+=-lcrypto
          endif



You end up mixing static and dynamic ssl libraries.
If you remove the "x86_64-linux-gnu" from wildcard, the libssl.a wont' be found anymore, and you will end up with the very same behaviour and build failure of
i386 build, such as the one here:

PATH=/builds/med-team/libucsc/debian/output/source_dir/debian/tmp_blat/usr/bin:/usr/lib/ccache/:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin make --directory=src/blat test
make[2]: Entering directory '/builds/med-team/libucsc/debian/output/source_dir/src/blat'

make[1]: *** [debian/rules:37: override_dh_auto_test] Error 2

Hi,

I'm trying to build libucsc which fails to build[1].  I suspect this is
due to an ABI change in libssl 1.1 to 3.x.  Any help how to fix this
would be really apreciated.

Kind regards
    Andreas.
