This sequence of commands work well for me to get a SSL-enabled version of Netatalk compiled “the Debian way” or “the Ubuntu way”, where you get a nice .deb file:

mkdir -p ~/src/netatalk
cd ~/src/netatalk
sudo apt-get install devscripts cracklib2-dev dpkg-dev libssl-dev build-essential
sudo apt-get build-dep netatalk
apt-get source netatalk
cd netatalk-2.0.3
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=ssl dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
sudo debi

Now you can install the .deb package that was just created.

You will want to set Netatalk “on hold” so that it will not update, killing your custom SSL version:

echo "netatalk hold" | sudo dpkg --set-selections
