[Pkg-openssl-devel] Bug#1138380: gsocket: FTBFS with openssl 4.0

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior]

Package: gsocket
Version: 1.4.43-4
Severity: normal
Tags: sid
control: affects -1 src:openssl
User: pkg-openssl-devel at lists.alioth.debian.org
Usertags: openssl-4.0

OpenSSL 4.0 is in experimental. This package fails to build against it:

| checking for dlopen in -ldl... (cached) yes
| checking for procstat_close in -lprocstat... no
| checking for ENGINE_init in -lcrypto... no
| configure: error: libcrypto not found
| 	tail -v -n \+0 config.log
| ==> config.log <==
| This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
| running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
| 
| It was created by gsocket configure 1.4.42, which was
| generated by GNU Autoconf 2.72.  Invocation command line was
| 
|   $ ./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr '--includedir=${prefix}/include' '--mandir=${prefix}/share/man' '--infodir=${prefix}/share/info' --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-option-checking --disable-silent-rules '--libdir=${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu' --runstatedir=/run --disable-maintainer-mode --disable-dependency-tracking
