LIBSSH not found during compilation process

[aswin19996]

Hi,

I am facing issues upon issuing the command cmake -D CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:String="Release" .. in the build folder created after extracting libnetconf2.

The Error is as below:

-- OPENSSL found, required for TLS CMake Error at CMakeModules/FindLibSSH.cmake:74 (file): file STRINGS file "/usr/include/libssh/libssh.h" cannot be read. Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:153 (find_package)

-- LIBSSH_VERSION_MAJOR not found, assuming libssh is too old and cannot be used! CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.5/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:148 (message): Could NOT find LibSSH (missing: LIBSSH_INCLUDE_DIRS LIBSSH_LIBRARIES) (Required is at least version "0.7.1") Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake-3.5/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:388 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE) CMakeModules/FindLibSSH.cmake:113 (find_package_handle_standard_args) CMakeLists.txt:153 (find_package)

I have also successfully installed the latest libssh version 0.9.5 in my system. Could someone please guide me on how to solve this issue?

Hi, the relevant error is

file STRINGS file "/usr/include/libssh/libssh.h" cannot be read.

but I do not know what causes it. I have just updated to libssh 0.9.5 and it worked just fine for me. Does the user you are running cmake with have access to /usr/include/libssh/libssh.h? Every should should be able to read that file, though.
