I avoided installing in the default path in the first place, to avoid all the fuss above. So, I would go for the second option (setting my paths) so that I won't have to recompile the quite a few ubuntu packets (46 actually) that are build against 0.9.8k. I hope it goes well! FYI, I found out that in ubuntu versions > 9.04 you cannot any more set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH but you have to create a conf file with your path in /etc/ld.so.conf.d/. > > Let's hope debian or ubuntu packages 1.0.0 soon. Fingers crossed;-) Thanks again, Panos Ps. I pinged ubuntu for this as well and I really do hope that they will move to 1.0.0 soon as it has been released 5.5 months ago! ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
