AIX 7.1 TL5 SP9
For a number of releases since introducing OpenSSH ver. 8, AIX experiencing a problem configuring OpenSSH with static OpenSSL libs ver. 1.1.1.(x).
The "configure" command finishes with error:
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/openssh --with-ssl-dir=/usr/local/openssl --with-zlib=/usr/local/zlib --without-openssl-header-check --with-cflags=-q64 --with-ldflags=-q64
<skip>
...
checking whether snprintf can declare const char *fmt... yes
checking if getaddrinfo seems to work... yes
checking whether AI_NUMERICSERV is declared... yes
checking if SA_RESTARTed signals interrupt select()... yes
checking for getpgrp... yes
checking if getpgrp accepts zero args... yes
configure: error: *** working libcrypto not found, check config.log
The remedy is to add
--with-libs=-lpthread
argument into "configure" command.
It is not clear how "libpthread" affects "configure" command's ability to locate "libcrypto". It all related to the initial env config.
Looks like it is a sort of misleading info provided by "configure" output by displaying the error with "libcrypto" while in fact "config.log" contains lines with ".pthread" errors just before "libcrypto" error (could it be a 'side' effect of ".pthread" symbols being not found - ?).
Additional info:
cc -qlanglvl=extc99 supports C99-style variadic macros... yes
cc option to enable C99 features... -qlanglvl=extc99
system type... powerpc-ibm-aix7.1.5.0
run the C preprocessor... cc -qlanglvl=extc99 -E
"config.log" contains the following errors:
