[Nagiosplug-devel] 1.4.16: Error in check_http.c when compiling without SSL

[Michael LaCorte]

Thanks for the response. I later did install SSL since I wanted to install NRPE anyway. Declaring 'ssl_version' outside the HAVE_SSL was just a workaround that I used to get the Makefile to build. Ideally you shouldn't need to check the SSL version if it won't be compiling with SSL, but that would have been more work for me, and I just wanted to get the plugins to install.
