I have a FreeBSD system that has the SSL libraries not built from ports. Apparently the syslog-ng port expects ssl to be installed from ports. I'd prefer not to do that at this time.
The newest sysutils/syslog-ng3 from ports should be able to build with the system SSL aswell. I'd suggest upgrading your ports collection, or at least sysutils/syslog-ng3. The trick is to set OPENSSL_CFLAGS and OPENSSL_LIBS environment variables prior to configure, as they override the pkg-config supplied ones (which won't even be tried in this case). Nevertheless, I'd suggest upgrading your ports collection, as building with the system openssl has been supported there for a while now (since late january, according to the $FreeBSD$ tag in the Makefile). -- |8]
