Maybe, maybe not.  We don't need the openssl binary (which you clearly have), 
but the openssl library (which you likely have) including headers (which you 
may not have) and in a location where we look for it (which you definitively 
do not have).  Try "which openssl".  If that gives you 
say /usr/local/bin/openssl, add "--with-crypto=/usr/local" to the configure 
line.  Only if you have libcrypto and the SSL-headers in /usr (without local) 
configure should auto-detect it.
