Hi,

Specs: OS X 10.7.3; latest version of Prowl.pl.

I was attempting to use the Prowl.pl
script<http://www.prowlapp.com/faq.php#script>to send notifications to
Prowl <http://www.prowlapp.com/> via a script.  This script requires the
installation of Crypto::SSLeay.  However, it transpires that Crypto::SSLeay
cannot be installed on a default installation of Lion because Apple has
(according to zac on the Prowl
forums<http://forums.cocoaforge.com/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=24104#p132612>),
"deprecated
OpenSSL support".  zac goes on to say:

"[this] has the unfortunate effect here of breaking the script."

I don't suppose anyone could advise me of a way to install the required
libraries myself?  I'd like it if it could be via one of the package
managers, such as MacPorts, as this would make it easier to keep track of.

Here's the exact error message CPAN gives when I attempt to install
Crypto::SSLeay:

No installed SSL libraries found in any of the following places.
    /local
    /local/ssl
    /opt/ssl
    /usr
    /usr/local
    /usr/local/ssl
    /usr/local/openssl
You will have to either specify a directory location at the following
prompt, or rerun the Makefile.PL program and use the --lib switch
to specify the path. If the path in question is considered standard
on your platform, please consider filing a bug report in order to
have it taken into account in a subsequent version of Crypt::SSLeay.
Found multiple possibilities for OpenSSL
Which SSL install path do you want to use?

S.
