Hello,

I have successfully built and install rugged on Ubuntu 24.04.2 (in the OpenVox Puppet Ruby). However, there seems to be a linking issue with the OpenSSL MD4 function:

# ld /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/gems/3.2.0/gems/rugged-1.9.0/lib/rugged/rugged.so
ld: warning: cannot find entry symbol _start; not setting start address
ld: /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/gems/3.2.0/gems/rugged-1.9.0/lib/rugged/rugged.so: undefined reference to `MD4'

This causes the gem not to work.

Versions:

# openssl version
OpenSSL 3.0.13 30 Jan 2024 (Library: OpenSSL 3.0.13 30 Jan 2024)
# /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/ruby --version
ruby 3.2.8 (2025-03-26 revision 13f495dc2c) [x86_64-linux]
# This is maybe not relevant since I am not using the system libgit2
# apt show libgit2-dev
Package: libgit2-dev
Version: 1.7.2+ds-1ubuntu3
