Problem getting ssl support with links 2


Ok, I'm trying to install links 2 version 2.1pre15 WITH ssl suport, this is the only thing that alludes me. I've installed openssl like it says...but then it just won't work when I run configure. I've tried many diffrent configure options using --with-ssl and without it. I've even downgraded my version of openssl(didn't work, going to upgrade it back) I'm running Debian unstable. apt-get install openssl returns thats its already installed, and I have been able to apt-get elinks with ssl support and it runs just fine(unfortunatly the links 2 I used apt-get to get keeps telling me that ssl support was not compliled). I've been at this a few hours. What stupid little thing am I missing?

I've tried --with-ssl=/ect/ssl , locate ssl and locate openssl don't return a clue to a more usefull folder to try.

relevent output of ./configure --enable-javascript --with-ssl=ect/ssl --enable-graphics

checking for openssl... yes
checking OPENSSL_CFLAGS...
checking OPENSSL_LIBS... -lssl -lcrypto -ldl
checking for OpenSSL... no


Configuration results:

GPM support: NO
SSL support: NO
Javascript enabled: YES
Graphics enabled: YES
Graphics drivers: X
Image formats: GIF PNG XBM JPEG
xterm for OS/2 support: NO

Any clue on what I'm doing wrong would be helpfull.

I solved the problem so for anyone with a simialr problem heres what I did:

I installed the package cl-ssl. Either that or one of its dependancies was needed to get it to compile with ssl support...however, I found no indication that any of the dependencies or cl-ssl was needed, it just said you needed openssl...
