checking for library containing RSA_new... not found
configure: error: could not find library containing RSA_new
configure failed for neon
The problem is either with the installed location of the openssl library or it might be possible that openssl-devel is not installed on the box.
Look for the openssl-devel rpm and if it is installed in the system then one have to identify the exact location of the openssl library and can pass the same to the configure script like...
$./configure --with-ssl --with-libs=/usr/local/ssl ...
Problem resolved. :-)
cheers, make world open.
