I'm not sure I follow.

Hi Adam,

obviously the Redhat binary distribution needs dynamically linked
libcrypto and libssl. IMHO we should spend the additional 10kb and have
both libs statically linked to pgAdmin3, to avoid these dependencies. Or
did Jean-Michel just forget to use --enable-static when building?

AFAIR we confirmed that by default dynamic linking should be used, while
our binary distributions should be as static as possible to minimize
dependencies.

Andreas

No, the packages use %configure --enable-debug --enable-static
--with-wx-config=%{withwxconfig}. And I can confirm that the SSL combo does
not display under RedHat 9.

Cheers, Jean-Michel

Okay, I will take a look at this again and see if the --disable-shared
flag can statically link as much as possible.

So that distri isn't compiled for SSL.

Michael, did you use said binary package? If not, which did you use?

If Michael really did use that RH9 package, this would mean that
libcrypto and libssl are linked, but pgAdmin3 is SSL-disabled. This
certainly wouldn't make sense.

So if SSL is not defined, the ssl libs may not be linked to it either.

Andreas
