Fwd: Question about ax_check_openssl

Couldn’t reach Dustin… guess he’s no longer at Zmanda.com.

Anyway, using (indirectly via iperf3)

https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ax_check_openssl.html

and can’t figure out how to tell this macro “don’t use OpenSSL even if you find it”.

It doesn’t honor --without-openssl.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
