This is probably because, under Debian, the OpenSSL headers are in a non-standard location, viz., /usr/include/openssl
When you run ./configure you need to specify a command line option that gives it the location of the OpenSSL header. Exactly what the configure option is will depend on the software you are compiling, and should be documented in the installation instructions. These can typically be found in the INSTALL file in the top directory of the package. ./configure --help should also list the options. It will be something like: ./configure --with-ssl=/usr/include/openssl but you need to find the specific option for the header location. Some packages will let you specify the header and library locations separately; the library is typically in /usr/lib. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
