[squid-users] enabling https 443 on vanilla squid -debian squeeze-

Allright, many of you know me here from some of my previous posts, and
Im sure if I went a googling Id find answers to my questions but hey,
why, when im subscribed to the squid-cache users mailing list~ hehe.

Well anyway, ive never used squid for ssl/https:443 before and noticed
one of my clients playing a lot of that farmville crap on facebook,
sometimes uses ssl, and farmville uses a considerable ammount of
bandwidth. I wanna intercept all of that wasted redownloads so, since
farmville seems to be using https more, my clients arent getting the
benefit of my squid cache :(, welp now its time to enable ssl "bump" or
w/e they call it in squid.

ok, as I understand squid must be compiled to cache ssl http content?
Because im using a vanilla version that ships with debian squeeze. see
below.

I dont see any --enable ssl below :(

Why wouldnt they ship the vanilla binarie with ssl enabled??
