Default --with-ssl=DIR

I am trying to recompile Apache, and I am stumped by this directive:

--with-ssl=DIR SSL/TLS toolkit (OpenSSL)

What EXACTLY am I supposed to put here? It's so vague. Am I supposed to
put the folder to my openssl binary? In that case the binary is located at
"/usr/bin/openssl".

Or am I supposed to put "/usr/include/openssl/", which contains all the *.h
files?

Or, am I supposed to put "/usr/share/ssl/", which contains files like CA
cert.pem certs lib misc openssl.cnf private stunnel.cnf?

The documentation is SOOOO terrible.

Where are your ssl headers and libs? Do you have the headers at all?

Try "locate ssl.h"
if it is found f.e. in /usr/local/include/ssl

the directive would be "--with-ssl=/usr/local"
