curl-7.21.1_0 +universal configure failure on Leopard, can't find openssl

[jamie.kimberley@…]

OS 10.5.8 intel, macports Version: 1.9.1, Xcode 3.1.3

When attempting to install curl with the +universal variant I get a configure error that seems to be related to failure to locate the openssl libs/headers. I have installed all of curl's dependencies with the +universal variant (including openssl).

here are what I think are the relevant lines of the error log:

The openssl libs/headers appear to be located where pkg_config expects them. Curiously it does seem to find the last dependency err.h

I'm not sure if this is an issue with curl or openssl. I did find this ticket #25991 in which a user reports a similar problem.

Curl builds fine if i don't specify the +universal variant and activate the standard openssl variant (i.e. the non-universal version). however building the default curl fails if i try to use openssl +universal as a dependency.

Please let me know if I can provide any more information to help diagnose the issue.

I agree it does sound a lot like #25991. I need to get an Intel Leopard system set up to test this.

Fixing in #25991.
