why not add '--enable-openssl' into the configure options?

Does it support OpenSSL now?

This mailing list might not be the right place (TM) to ask those kind of questions. You should rather ask questions like this directly to the package maintainer(s), which for this package [1] happen to be:

...

# Maintainer: Timothy Redaelli # Contributor: Richard Murri # Contributor: Michal Krenek

The maintainer listed in the file retired from Arch, and the package has not been updated since then except for two mass rebuilds, one for openssl 1.1.0 and one for PIE/BUILDINFO. Wait, what was that about openssl support?

Alternatively you can file a bug [2], so it gets attention by the right people.

Always try to verify if the bug actually exists before reporting it. Whether the --enable-openssl flag is passed or not is irrelevant, most projects will tend to make support for basic things like openssl, the default. $ pkg-list-linked-libraries ecryptfs-utils ==> checking linked libraries for ecryptfs-utils-111-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz ... [..] /usr/lib/ecryptfs/libecryptfs_key_mod_openssl.so NEEDED libcrypto.so.1.1 NEEDED libdl.so.2 NEEDED libc.so.6 [...] And indeed, the configure.ac for the project contains: AC_ARG_ENABLE( [openssl], [AS_HELP_STRING([--disable-openssl],[Disable build of OpenSSL key module])], , [enable_openssl="detect"] ) If not explicitly disabled, it will try to check for libcrypto using pkg-config, then fall back on checking for openssl using pkg-config, then fall back on using AC_CHECK_LIB to try to find -lcrypto with a usable RSA_version public function. The "detect" criteria is always met because openssl is a core functionality for Arch Linux, for example curl/libcurl depends on libssl, and pacman uses libcurl as well as directly using libcrypto. coreutils also depends on openssl. In the unlikely event that openssl was removed from the set of packages installed in a base installation (which would be an event of note for linux distributions in general), the ecryptfs-utils PKGBUILD would only need to explicitly depend on openssl. -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
