 libssh2-1.11.1-1 package build environment question

I'm trying to build my own package for libssh2 at the 1.11.1 level and include the -D_REENTRANT flag.  I've had success doing this in the past with 1.9.0.  The problem I'm seeing is none of the tests are passing.  For the most current published package (libssh2-1.11.1-1.aix7.1.ppc.rpm), what were the versions of OpenSSL and OpenSSH used during that build? The source package SPEC file doesn't give any specifics, and I think trying to use the latest releases might be my issue.

Update: After looking through the test suite log, it seems like most of the tests are unusable on AIX and they assume docker and mktemp are available.

Hi, 
That's right. Because of docker dependency, most of the tests are failing. I will suggest to go ahead and use for your development and report any issue if found. 

Thanks
