Where is OpenSSL?

I can’t find the OpenSSL-for-Ruby package. RAA says it should be at:
http://www.freesoftware.fsf.org/rubypki/

but nothing is there.

It’s now in the standard library that comes with Ruby 1.8.x.

Luckily it was a NetBSD package (system for automatically compiling and
installing software). And they normally provide a backup for the
original source code for any package.

Sure enough, if I run

cd /usr/pkgsrc/security/ruby-openssl
make install

it fails to get the original from the FSF and falls back to the NetBSD
server:

ftp://ftp.netbsd.org//pub/NetBSD/packages/distfiles/ruby/ossl-0.1.4a.tar.gz

And if we’re still using 1.6.8? (I still have to on one machine)

However, it’s not in the Windows rubyinstaller installation from:
http://rubyinstaller.sourceforge.net/

I suspect this is because you can’t rely on the fact that an openssl
library will be available on Windows. Apparently, openssl libraries
exist commonly under Linux, so there’s a library to link the extension
to.
