[Python-Dev] Problem with SSL and socketmodule on Debian Potato?

[Neil Schemenauer]

Fresh CVS tree:

Python 2.1c1 (#2, Apr 12 2001, 17:23:20) 
[GCC 2.95.2 20000220 (Debian GNU/Linux)] on linux2
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import socket
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
  File "/scratch/nascheme/py_cvs/dist/src/Lib/socket.py", line 41, in ?
    from _socket import *
ImportError: /scratch/nascheme/py_cvs/dist/src/linux/build/lib.linux-i686-2.1/_socket.so: undefined symbol: RAND_status

socketmodule is linked thusly:

gcc -shared build/temp.linux-i686-2.1/socketmodule.o -L/usr/local/lib -lssl -lcrypto -o build/lib.linux-i686-2.1/_socket.so

The SSL package is:

    libssl09-dev 0.9.4-5

I've no time to dig into the details right now but I should have
time tonight.  I will be gone on holiday tomorrow.
