This is because `pkg-config` outputs `-lssl -lcrypto`, which you want to break up by spaces into `-lssl` and `-lcrypto`. An alternative is to put the variables to an array and expand it:
|

|
|
||||||
|
args=( $(pkg-config --libs openssl) )
|
||||||
|
gcc "${args[@]}" client.c
|
||||||
|

The power of using an array becomes evident when you want to combine, for example, the command result with user-provided arguments:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
compile () {
|
||||||
|
args=( $(pkg-config --libs openssl) "${@}" )

gcc "${args[@]}" client.c
