>Summary: check_postgresql: configure test for -lcrypto on OpenBSD

Initial Comment:
Configure tests for -lcrypt, especially when testing for postgresql.
At least OpenBSD does not know about libcrypt but only about
libcrypto.

Furthermore postgresql tests partly do not honour $PGSQL.

See the attached diff for clarification.

The patch was just meant for clarification. I do not know autoconf and do
not know any detail regarding libcrypt, so I cannot provide a proper
patch.
Sorry, Nikolay.

hi,

thanks for the report, but there are two issues i see with
your patch:

- it's a patch against the configure script generated by 
  autoconf instead of the configure.in template
- i'm suspecting this will break things on other OS's that
do use 
  -lcrypt instead of -lcrypto

if you could supply a patch that deals with both of these,
i'll include it into our cvs tree.  thanks!
