The code in configure.in
dnl SSL Check
SSL_LIBS=''
AC_MSG_CHECKING(whether to use SSL library if available)
if test "x$enable_ssl" = "xno" ; then
AC_MSG_RESULT(no)
else
AC_MSG_RESULT(yes)
AC_ETHEREAL_SSL_CHECK
fi
AC_SUBST(SSL_LIBS)
enable the use of the openssl library by default. So what happens
if you run
./configure --disable-ssl
If that is OK should we then make the default behaviour not to use
the openssl library?
Best regards

Changes to look for SSL library for those who have UCD SNMP compiled
This is what I was suspecting. I'm just surprised that you don't
have any (UCD|Net)-SNMP lib dependencies. Probably because you only
have static versions of them?
I don't have any SNMP libraries installed, which is why you don't see
the SNMP lib dependencies in the ldd output. However, it looks like
the
test doesn't discriminate based on the presence of an SNMP library.
Even if it did though, the licensing would still prohibit distribution
of the resulting product. Linking to a library that links to OpenSSL
is
the same thing as linking directly, as far as the GPL is concerned.
