Having trouble building OpenSSL on Mac. Info: I'm working on a PowerPC G4 Mac running MacOS X 10.3.9. It has XCode 1.5, including gcc 3.3 with the "November 2004 Update". (I'm not actually using XCode, but it was the easiest way to get the whole compiler/linker package installed.) This Mac has to remain at 10.3.9, so I can't move to a newer XCode or gcc. I will eventually add newer Macs to the test set, though.
Procedure: Downloaded openssl-0.9.7m.tar.gz. Unzipped, untarred with no problems. "./config threads shared" seemed to work fine. (It guessed darwin-ppc-cc, which is good: "cc" is equivalent to "gcc" on this system.) "make" seemed to work fine. (It first failed when I used the "zlib" option, so I removed that option.) But "make test" spits out SO much data that I can't tell if there are any errors or not!! Some parts of that output present lists of values, but I have no idea of those values are GOOD or BAD. Could someone explain HOW to tell if the tests succeeded or not??? [Or does no-one actually run the tests when they build OpenSSL?] Below are places that LOOK like errors to me, but might be normal or expected output for the tests: This line shows up twice: 16 bytes leaked in 2 chunks This line shows up twice, near the above line: error 40 at 0 depth lookup:proxy cerificates not allowed, please set the appropriate flag These two lines (with only the first number changing) show up TWENTY-TWO times: ERROR in CLIENT 9167:error:1407E086:SSL routines:SSL2_SET_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed:s2_clnt.c:1067: SO, how can I tell if those are really error messages indicating that my build of OpenSSL is bad, or if those are NORMAL test output and my build is good? I really, really have to get OpenSSL setup so I can -use- it on this Mac, but I'm stuck if the build isn't good. (Particularly since I have no indication of how to MAKE it good.)
