[xmlsec] So Near And Yet So Far: Building xmlsec Under OS X

[David Mundie]

I took Aleksey's advice and used Fink to install openssl097-dev on a  
non-mission-critical machine. I was then able to build xmlsec from the  
1.2.3 sources without any (obvious) errors - in particular, I didn't  
get the parsing problems that Darian did. I just did

	./configure
	make
	sudo make install

and everything *seemed* to build correctly.

However, when I did

	make check

I got errors:

--- testKeys started for xmlsec-openssl library (20040110_083608) ---

And in fact there is no libxmlsec1-openssl.so in /usr/local/lib:

openssl>  ls /usr/local/lib
libxmlsec1-openssl.1.2.3.dylib* libxmlsec1-openssl.la*           
libxmlsec1.dylib@
libxmlsec1-openssl.1.dylib@     libxmlsec1.1.2.3.dylib*

pkgconfig/
libxmlsec1-openssl.dylib@       libxmlsec1.a                     
xmlsec1Conf.sh

nor in xmlsec1-1.2.3/src/openssl/.libs:/usr/local/lib:

openssl>  ls /Users/dmundie/opt/005/8/xmlsec1-1.2.3/src/openssl/.libs
app.o                           kt_rsa.o

evp.o                           libxmlsec1-openssl.a             
x509vfy.o
hmac.o                          libxmlsec1-openssl.dylib@

Unfortunately I'm not an expert when it comes to linker nuances. I will  
continue to investigate, but would appreciate any pointers. How is this  
supposed to work? I did due diligence, but found nothing in the mailing  
list archive that seemed to address this.
