It seems to work here: --with-libgcrypt Use Libgcrypt for crypto --with-openssl Use OpenSSL for crypto --with-libz Use Libz for compression --with-gnu-ld assume the C compiler uses GNU ld default=no --with-libssl-prefix[=DIR] search for libssl in DIR/include and DIR/lib --without-libssl-prefix don't search for libssl in includedir and libdir --with-libgcrypt-prefix[=DIR] search for libgcrypt in DIR/include and DIR/lib --without-libgcrypt-prefix don't search for libgcrypt in includedir and libdir --with-libz-prefix[=DIR] search for libz in DIR/include and DIR/lib --without-libz-prefix don't search for libz in includedir and libdir The ordering isn't perfect though, but it is still there. /Simon
