Compile OpenVPN 2.5.7 in Amazon Linux 2023
Posted: Tue Oct 17, 2023 1:10 pm
Hi,
I'm trying to compile OpenVPN 2.5.7 in Amazon Linux 2023.
running ./configure fails with:
checking additionally if OpenSSL is available and version >= 1.0.2... configure: error: OpenSSL version too old
However: "rpm -qa | grep openssl" gives:
openssl-3.0.8-1.amzn2023.0.7.x86_64
openssl-pkcs11-0.4.12-3.amzn2023.0.1.x86_64
openssl-libs-3.0.8-1.amzn2023.0.7.x86_64
Quoting from https://openvpn.net/community-downloads:
"The OpenVPN community project team is proud to release OpenVPN 2.5.7. This is mostly a bugfix release, but adds limited support for OpenSSL 3.0. Full support will arrive in OpenVPN 2.6."
So it makes sense to expect to be able to compile successfully.
Thanks a lot for your help,
Sharon
