### Installing on a Unix-ish system with pkg-config

1.  (If necessary) install the openssl C library with a package manager
    that provides an openssl.pc file OR install openssl manually and create
    an openssl.pc file.

2.  Ensure that `pkg-config --cflags --libs openssl` finds your openssl
    library.  If it doesn't, try setting `PKG_CONFIG_PATH` to the directory
    containing your openssl.pc file.  E.g. for darwin: with MacPorts,
    `PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/local/lib/pkgconfig` or for Homebrew,
    `PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2l/lib/pkgconfig`

### Installing on a Unix-ish system without pkg-config

1.  (If necessary) install the openssl C library in your customary way

2.  Set the `CGO_CPP_FLAGS`, `CGO_CFLAGS` and `CGO_LDFLAGS` as necessary to
    provide `-I`, `-L` and other options to the compiler.  E.g. on darwin,
    MongoDB's darwin build servers use the native libssl, but provide the
    missing headers in a custom directory, so it the build hosts set
    `CGO_CPPFLAGS=-I/opt/mongodbtoolchain/v2/include`

### Installing on Windows

1. Install [mingw-w64](http://mingw-w64.sourceforge.net/) and add it to
   your `PATH`

2. Install the C openssl into `C:\openssl`.  (Unfortunately, this is still
   hard-coded.)  You should have directories like `C:\openssl\include` and
   `C:\openssl\bin`.
