Hmm, shouldn't we instead modify
configureaccordingly on OS X instead? @theuni - what do you think? -
DomT4 commented at 4:34 PM on October 24, 2015: contributor
It's probably worth using
$(brew --prefix openssl)instead of a hardcoded/usr/local/opt/openssl. People can (and do) stick Homebrew almost anywhere. -

Configure already looks for brew's openssl if brew is detected, so this shouldn't be necessary. Could you please paste a config.log where detection fails?

Agree with @theuni: never had problems with openssl installed through homebrew.

The solution I found comes from the Homebrew team itself, as it is suggested at installation time and by doing
brew info openssl..../bitcoin-0.11.1$ brew info openssl openssl: stable 1.0.2d (bottled) OpenSSL SSL/TLS cryptography library https://openssl.org/ This formula is keg-only. Apple has deprecated use of OpenSSL in favor of its own TLS and crypto libraries /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2d_1 (464 files, 17M) Poured from bottle From: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew/blob/master/Library/Formula/openssl.rb ==> Dependencies Build: makedepend ✘ ==> Options --universal Build a universal binary --without-check Skip build-time tests (not recommended) ==> Caveats A CA file has been bootstrapped using certificates from the system keychain. To add additional certificates, place .pem files in /usr/local/etc/openssl/certs and run /usr/local/opt/openssl/bin/c_rehash This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local. Apple has deprecated use of OpenSSL in favor of its own TLS and crypto libraries Generally there are no consequences of this for you. If you build your own software and it requires this formula, you'll need to add to your build variables: LDFLAGS: -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include .../bitcoin-0.11.1$Perhaps something is broken on my system and the configure script fails recognising Homebrew's openssl?

You'll have to debug why this is not working: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/configure.ac#L292 We don't hardcode the path because it should be able to find it using the appropriate utility

sipa commented at 5:17 PM on October 29, 2015: member
@rromanchuk That sounds like your OpenSSL version was compiled without EC support.

rromanchuk commented at 5:29 PM on October 29, 2015: none
Sure, but I just followed directions. Are you sure the current formula for
brew install openssldoes what you are saying it does? I mean no biggie, not hard to fix, but might be worth mentioning. My guess is that you have two reports in five days using a modern OS and the general velocity of new users building for mac os is right on target for this not being user error -
giacecco commented at 3:14 PM on October 30, 2015: none
@sipa @rromanchuk I don't think it is about EC support, all headers could not be found when I had the issue first (see the top of this issue) and I had to set the LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS environment variables manually.

Homebrew/homebrew#41613
Bitcoin's configure script works around relying on an assumption about where to find
opensslby askingbrewwhereopensslis located directly.Locally I see:
checking openssl/ec.h usability... yes checking openssl/ec.h presence... no configure: WARNING: openssl/ec.h: accepted by the compiler, rejected by the preprocessor! configure: WARNING: openssl/ec.h: proceeding with the compiler's result checking for openssl/ec.h... yes -

I'm seeing this same problem. What is the solution to get configure to work correctly without exporting the two variables?
brew --prefix openssldoes work correctly on the command line and I'm boggled whyconfiguredoesn't work. - DrahtBot locked this on Sep 8, 2021
