Compile error...

Every time i attempt to compile something like eb-lite or Gaim or Kopete, etc It starts to go fine..

I type ./configure then make, but when i type make i'll get errors similar to this

(a compile of eb-lite i did)

This is where the mass errors come in near the end

Any help would be great. I really need to compile these things. I have tried deleting the user account and remaking it, nothing works.

you need to install openssl.

I downloaded, compiled openssl

(./configure make make test make install)

and i got the same error while compiling eb-lite

There is a solution here:

Thanks for the replies,

I looked at that last link and I did a RPM search for the rpm i need

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3?stat...utls&srodzaj=3

I dont see anythnig in regards to slackware....

first you have to download and build openssl/ssl.h

after that you can use it in your application... i think in your case you forgot
to include openssl/ssl.h and openssl/err.h ..... include and try
