From d74dfafd8bfb98e77ba07c4827362836e4160e94 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Richard Levitte Date: Wed, 20 Jan 2016 18:11:51 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Refresh the thinking of --prefix and --openssldir --prefix is now exclusively used for software and manual installation. --openssldir is not exclusively used as a default location for certs, keys and the default openssl.cnf. This change is made to bring clarity, to have the two less intertwined, and to be more compatible with the usual ways of software installation. Please change your habits and scripts to use --prefix rather than --openssldir for installation location now.
