Hi all,
I'm using pkgsrc on Solaris 9 and Solaris 10. We have various Sun boxes with 
various SUN crypto hardware in them. This means we have to use Sun's OpenSSL in 
order to get the hardware acceleration and the latest Sun patches for their SSL 
include enough new features to make it usable.

What do I need to do to pkgsrc to make it use the system OpenSSL instead of the 
pkgsrc one? I started off just by commenting out the buildlink entry for openssl 
in sysutils/cfengine2 and then compiling cfengine with "bmake 
BUILDLINK_PREFIX.openssl=/opt/SUNWconn/crypto". This crashed and burned and I 
did enough digging to find that the transformation part of the wrapper subsystem 
simply won't permit compiler flags that point to absolute paths that it doesn't 
know about.

This is obviously a policy decision and I'm okay with that, but I still need to 
get pkgsrc to use the system OpenSSL.

How do I go about teaching pkgsrc about the Solaris OpenSSL?

Cheers
