ruby-build ignores pkg-config when deciding whether to install OpenSSL #2544
Description
If no compatible OpenSSL version is found, ruby-build downloads and installs OpenSSL.
When looking for a compatible OpenSSL version, ruby-build will try the system OpenSSL, then Homebrew-installed OpenSSL versions.
ruby-build should to be able to find an OpenSSL version installed by other package managers, using pkg-config (like Autoconf does when building Ruby).
Steps to reproduce the behavior
- Install Ruby dependencies, as well as pkg-config, using your package manager of choice (say MacPorts):
sudo port install pkgconfig openssl libyaml
- Check that pkg-config is present and finds OpenSSL:
pkg-config --cflags --libs openssl
- Check that OpenSSL version is 3.x.x:
pkg-config --modversion openssl
- Check that Ruby builds correctly on your machine:
cd ruby-3.4.4 \ && ./autogen.sh \ && ./configure --prefix=/var/tmp/ruby-3.4.4 --enable-shared --with-ext=openssl,psych,+ \ && make install
- Install Ruby using ruby-build:
ruby-build 3.4.4 /var/tmp/ruby-3.4.4
Expected behavior
ruby-build should use the OpenSSL package installed by the package manager.
Actual behavior
ruby-build downloads and builds OpenSSL.
