   How to create openssl-RPM in 2009.1?

   Hi everybody!   
      
   Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction in this case:   
      
   On a few of my boxes I still run Mandriva 2009.1, which I don't want to   
   throw down, but instead update and bugfix them as long as possible.   
   (Beside this, of course I have several other boxes with more uptodate   
   OSes, but for now, please just let's talk about this project).   
      
   When connecting to a VPN server, where the maintainers just switched from   
   VPNC to Openconnect protocol standard, I was forced to get the complete   
   Openconnect source tarball ( ftp://ftp.infradead.org/pub/openconnect/   
   openconnect-7.02.tar.gz ) and compile / build it by myself, because for   
   this OS there's no ready-to-use binary RPM outside.   
      
   After installing all needed parts like openssl, lib-openssl and openssl-   
   devel, I got it to run, but during handshake I see that DTLS is not built-   
   in and there's a fallback to SSL instead. Seems that ssl version 0.9.8   
   does not support Cisco DTLS and I have to get the current developer files.   
      
   I got the newest openssl tarball ( https://www.openssl.org/source/   
   openssl-1.0.1j.tar.gz ), but it's not clear, which files / directories   
   belong to openssl, lib-openssl or openssl-devel.   
      
   Also, I'm in doubt, if it is really necessary to first create the "source   
   RPMs" as some "tutorials" claim, or, if the sources can just be compiles /   
   built and then packed to bin-RPMs.   
      
   It would be highly appreciated if someone has already done such tasks and   
   could share alittle of his knowledge!   
      
   Many thanks in advance,   
   best regards,   
      
   Markus
