Fails to target aarch64-linux-android on Arch Linux

[pgattic]

I am building a project (that depends on SSL) using the Dioxus framework, and trying to build for Android. I run this command:

cargo run "--profile" "android-dev" "--target" "aarch64-linux-android" "--verbose" "--no-default-features" "--features" "mobile" "--bin" "my_program"

and get this error:

--- stderr


  Could not find directory of OpenSSL installation, and this `-sys` crate cannot
  proceed without this knowledge. If OpenSSL is installed and this crate had
  trouble finding it,  you can set the `OPENSSL_DIR` environment variable for the
  compilation process.

  Make sure you also have the development packages of openssl installed.
  For example, `libssl-dev` on Ubuntu or `openssl-devel` on Fedora.

  If you're in a situation where you think the directory *should* be found
  automatically, please open a bug at https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl
  and include information about your system as well as this message.

  $HOST = x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
  $TARGET = aarch64-linux-android
  openssl-sys = 0.9.104

I have tried compiling openssl from source, and passing in the correct path to it, among other things. When I try to specify the path to openSSL, I get this error:

--- stderr
  thread 'main' panicked at /home/pgattic/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/openssl-sys-0.9.104/build/main.rs:264:13:

  Header expansion error:
  Error { kind: ToolNotFound, message: "Failed to find tool. Is `aarch64-linux-android-clang` installed?" }

  Failed to find OpenSSL development headers.

  You can try fixing this setting the `OPENSSL_DIR` environment variable
  pointing to your OpenSSL installation or installing OpenSSL headers package
  specific to your distribution:

      # On Ubuntu
      sudo apt-get install pkg-config libssl-dev
      # On Arch Linux
      sudo pacman -S pkgconf openssl
      # On Fedora
      sudo dnf install pkgconf perl-FindBin perl-IPC-Cmd openssl-devel
      # On Alpine Linux
      apk add pkgconf openssl-dev

The packages it tells me I should have on Arch linux are installed on my system, and I have the Android NDK installed and set up.

Let me know if I can provide any other information, or if this issue should be placed somewhere else! Thanks!

Hi

I not sure if this is the solution.
But perhaps I could help you a bit by sharing my experience.
I running on Mac and have OpenSSL over brew. On Windows it is more complex.
You need the OpenSSL dir know to your compiler:

[env]
OPENSSL_DIR = "/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl"

In .cargo/config.toml
Or classic set the env on your system.
Brew has different platforms available.
