As I could not find on the internet any other solution, I'm going to document here how I compiled ckermit 9.0.302 on my Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS:
1) Download cku302.tar.gz from http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck90.html#source to /usr/local/src/ckermit 2) gunzip -c cku302.tar.gz | tar xf - 3) make linux+krb5+ssl compilation failed: openssl/comp.h: No such file or directory 4) Install package libssl-dev: apt-get install libssl-dev 5) Also needed packages libkrb5-dev & libpam0g-dev 6) Compilation failed: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgssapi libgssapi-krb5-2 was already installed which contains /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgssapi_krb5.so.2 but not libgssapi.so... These do exist (part of package libgssapi3-heimdal: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgssapi.so.3 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgssapi.so.3.0.0 I'm not sure if I should be using krb5 MIT or heimdal. I don't need krb5 anyway. 7) make linux+ssl Now compilation failed complaining about missing curses symbols... 8) change makefile in section linux: if test -f /usr/lib64/libncurses.so || \ test -f /usr/lib/libncurses.a || \ test -f /usr/lib/libncurses.so; then \ HAVE_LIBCURSES='-lncurses'; \ else if test -f /usr/lib64/libcurses.so || \ test -f /usr/lib/libcurses.a || \ test -f /usr/lib/libcurses.so; then \ HAVE_LIBCURSES='-lcurses'; fi; fi; \ to if test -f /usr/lib64/libncurses.so || \ test -f /usr/lib/libncurses.a || \ test -f /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libncurses.so.5 || \ ### add this line - do not include this comment### test -f /usr/lib/libncurses.so; then \ HAVE_LIBCURSES='-lncurses'; \ else if test -f /usr/lib64/libcurses.so || \ test -f /usr/lib/libcurses.a || \ test -f /usr/lib/libcurses.so; then \ HAVE_LIBCURSES='-lcurses'; fi; fi; \ 9) make linux+ssl (Clean compiled now.) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1072725 Title: wrong version OpenSSL To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ckermit/+bug/1072725/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
