Hello,

I must say in advance that I am pretty inexperienced with Cygwin so
please bear that in mind when reading my question :)

I am trying to install the OpenSSL package 0.9.8b which I need for a
specific task - however, no matter what I try, it doesn't seem to
work. What I try is this: I install cygwin from the internet based
setup and then run the setup.exe again, this time going from the local
directory in which the tar.bz2 is located. I can then see the version
I need to install in the selection window for the packages, but the
bin/source fields are set to n/a. I select the package, set the cygwin
install to Exp and click "next", but I then get the note that nothing
was installed and when I enter "openssl version" in the shell I get no
results either. I tried installing cygwin with the default OpenSSL
package and then use the above mentioned procedure to install the
0.9.8b version but all this does is uninstalling the default version.

I would greatly appreciate any ideas!

-Tabea
