postgresql 8.3.7 configure error with slackware64 13.0
 
here are the last seven lines of output from configure script (which is executed by the slackbuild script).

checking openssl/ssl.h usability... yes
checking openssl/ssl.h presence... yes
checking for openssl/ssl.h... yes
checking openssl/err.h usability... no
checking openssl/err.h presence... no
checking for openssl/err.h... no
configure: error: header file <openssl/err.h> is required for OpenSSL

Openssl comes with slackware64, and err.h (along with ssl.h) is located in /usr/include/openssl

Any thoughts?

Does /usr/include/openssl/err.h exist? I'm guessing not, which means that something is screwed up with your installation, and you may want to reinstall the openssl package.

For what it's worth, I build 8.3.7 via slackbuilds on two slackware64 machines over here in the past week.

That's the conundrum - usr/include/openssl/err.h exists and contains valid looking C. I've read in other forums about the configure program not accurately pinning the blame, and that errno.h or something was missing.

Reinstalling openssl changes nothing. I'm just waiting for the solution to fall from out of the sky.

What does config.log say?

I was wondering the same thing, but cannot find config.log. Where would it be located?

The error seems to revolve around the words "choke me." Quiet strange.
