When configuring from static libcrypto.a and libssl.a, it errors: can't find openssl.

To fix openssl static linking, just add -lpthread to the linker.

./configure \ --prefix=$HOME \ --enable-static \ --disable-shared \ --disable-debug \ --disable-dynamic \ --disable-syslog \ --disable-local \ --disable-slapd \ --enable-ipv6 \ --with-tls=openssl \ --without-cyrus-sasl \ --without-systemd \ --without-fetch \ --without-threads \ --without-yielding-select \ --without-mp \ --without-odbc \ --without-argon2 \ LIBS="-lpthread" # add -lpthread to fix openssl static linking
