* Why do I get errors about unknown algorithms?
This can happen under several circumstances such as reading in an
encrypted private key or attempting to decrypt a PKCS#12 file. The cause
is forgetting to load OpenSSL's table of algorithms with
OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(). See the manual page for more information.
The cause is forgetting to load OpenSSL's table of algorithms with
OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(). See the manual page for more information. This
can cause several problems such as being unable to read in an encrypted
PEM file, unable to decrypt a PKCS#12 file or signature failure when
verifying certificates.
* Why can't the OpenSSH configure script detect OpenSSL?

This specifies the format of the ultimate value. It should be followed
by a colon and one of the strings B<ASCII>, B<UTF8>, B<HEX> or B<BITLIST>.
If no format specifier is included then B<ASCII> is used. If B<UTF8> is specified
then the value string must be a valid B<UTF8> string. For B<HEX> the output must
be a set of hex digits. B<BITLIST> (which is only valid for a BIT STRING) is a
comma separated list of set bits.
