Problem with --with-ssl-dir

[Lutz Jaenicke]

Hi!

When specifying --with-ssl-dir=/path/to/ssl, configure will always use
an openssl-library in system locations if there, regardless of the setting.

This is caused by line 343 of configure.in:
  for ssldir in "" $tryssldir /usr/local/openssl /usr/lib/openssl /usr/local/ssl /usr/lib/ssl /usr/local /usr/pkg /opt /opt/openssl ; do
as "" precedes $tryssldir, so $tryssldir is never used, if "" is already
successfull.
I recommend to change the precedence to ' $tryssldir "" ', so that I can choose
another OpenSSL library (version) besides the one in the system directory.
(Currently, setting CFLAGS and LDFLAGS has even higher precedence, so as a
workaround I could choose this way).

Best regards,
	Lutz
