I'm using a pc with fedora29 installed trying to compile using libssh2-1.9.0 using openssl-1.1.1. It used to be able to compile fine, but recently when trying to compile again, I'm getting a giant list of undefined reference errors. Here is are 2 sample snippets:

I tried rebuilding the libssh2 source files and even tried on a different pc (vm) with a fresh install of everything and it also gives me errors and it's slowly driving me insane. Does anyone know of a solution to this?
