Thanks I was able to get around this by doing a minimal desktop install on debian. As I have built Net::z3950 on both Mandrake 9.0 and Suse 9.0, I suspect the problem might be elsewhere. I wentt the route of installing a desktop with a browser on Debian woody, kernel 2.4. I used the browser to download everything from CPAN and used the latest version of YAZ. re-v --- Ben Hall <ben.hall@ffa.int> wrote:

I experienced a similiar problem recently too. If apt-get install libssl-dev doesn't help you then you'll need to build openssl from source. You can download the openssl source from http://www.openssl.org/source. The version to download is usually highlighted in red.
After that I can only guess as to what the commands might be to install the source. Use the commands below as a guide and checkout the INSTALL and README files in the openssl tarball.
cd /usr/local tar xzf /home/ben/downloads/openssl-????.tar.gz cd openssl-???? ./configure make make install
Now try and rebuild Net::Z3950. I hope that goes someway to helping you out.
