Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2016-01-29 13:07:34] jeff at macloue dot com Description: ------------ In ./ext/openssl/config0.m4 the check for RAND_egd() function is placed before OpenSSL compile flags are applied. This makes this test fail and RAND_egd() function not used even if it is present. $ nm -D /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so | grep RAND_egd 00000000000e4340 T RAND_egd 00000000000e4320 T RAND_egd_bytes $ ./configure --with-openssl ... $ grep HAVE_RAND_EGD ./main/php_config.h /* #undef HAVE_RAND_EGD */ A workaround is adding -lcrypto to LDFLAGS: $ ./configure --with-openssl LDFLAGS=-lcrypto ... $ grep HAVE_RAND_EGD ./main/php_config.h #define HAVE_RAND_EGD 1 A possible solution is moving AC_CHECK_FUNCS() call below PHP_SETUP_OPENSSL() (attached) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=71483&edit=1
