Description

Nginx 1.9.12 openssl changes seems to have broken Nginx compiled with LibreSSL 2.2.6 https://community.centminmod.com/posts/27246/. Was working up to Nginx 1.9.11 with LibreSSL 2.2.6. Probably due to your openssl specific changes in 1.9.12 ? It works fine if Nginx 1.9.12 is compiled against OpenSSL 1.0.2f instead of LibreSSL 2.2.6.

Make stage source compile error is

make[1]: *** [../libressl-2.2.6/.openssl/include/openssl/ssl.h] Error 2

Yes, now nginx uses install_sw target to install OpenSSL when --with-openssl=path is used, and this breaks things when you try to use LibreSSL instead of OpenSSL.

Consider compiling LibreSSL yourself instead of asking nginx to do it for you. Don't expect nginx is able to compile LibreSSL, it's only expected to be able to compile OpenSSL.

Hi Maxim thanks for replying. Sad news to hear but I understand

Sad news. Anything we can do about it? We on Arch Linux used to compile LibreSSL together with Nginx this way.

As previously suggested, consider compiling LibreSSL yourself instead of asking nginx to do it for you.
