Subject: Re: Error while installing Jumbo Patch
Solar Designer,
Many thanks for your help once again. JTR is now patched and
working.Pleaseconsider the following question
- The OpenSSL documentation says that for "historic reasons" SSL is
installed in /usr/bin/ssl (refer the OpenSSL INSTALL file). Since many JTR
users may end up installing it here, would you consider amending the
MAKEFILE to use this path by default in the -I and -L parameters?
Kind regards,
Arvind
