using Open SSL on MIPS platform

[Akira Amore]

Hi,

I'm trying to build rdesktop on a Fedora Core 8 system using Tuxbuilder-1.0, targetted for a MIPS embedded system.

The rdesktop build throws the following error:

/usr/include/openssl/opensslconf.h:27:2: error: #error "This openssl-devel package does not work your architecture?"

Here are the openssl packages installed on my system:

openssl-0.9.8b-17.fc8
openssl-devel-0.9.8b-17.fc8

Can someone clue me in on how to proceed?

thanks for your help

Akira

I'm not familiar with Tuxbuilder, but if you're cross-compiling,
targetting said embedded MIPS, you shouldn't be linking with the fc8
openssl versions, you would need to build openssl in your MIPS tree
suitable for your target platform.

Ah! That makes so much sense, I wonder why I did not think of it :-)

thanks a lot for your help
