cannot build openssl-sys 0.9.101 dependency on FreeBSD 14

[fleetingbytes]

I cannot build the openssl-sys 0.9.101 dependency on FreeBSD 14, amd64.

this happens when I run cargo build

   Compiling openssl-sys v0.9.101
error: failed to run custom build command for `openssl-sys v0.9.101`

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `/home/tejul/src/leftwm-theme/target/debug/build/openssl-sys-1bc3d667f73a21dd/build-script-main` (exit status: 101)

  Error building OpenSSL dependencies:

      Failed to execute: No such file or directory (os error 2)


      
  note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace

In my error output I find it suspicious that in the line starting with "running cd" there is an option "--openssldir=/usr/local/ssl" yet on my system the openssl is installed in /usr/local/openssl. Maybe this path discrepancy is what caused the "No such file or directory" error.

Is there a way how I can change this custom build command for openssl-sys v0.9.101?

Looks like this might be relevant 🤔 : sfackler/rust-openssl#2019

[mautamu]

Ah I see you have a ticket open over there as well, will see if they find something on that ticket.

[piatsko]

Had the same problem as you. Turned out it is not related to directory, just install make
