Hi,

The issue is that OpenSSL 3.0 changed the API, which breaks older code. However, we chose not to ship OpenSSL 1.1 in parallel to 3.0 as that would carry the expectation of having security support for 1.1.1, which is EOL upstream in 2023.

Marking as Won't Fix, however it should be relatively straightforward for anyone to pick up the sources for openssl 1.1.1 from Impish and put them in a PPA.

Changed in openssl (Ubuntu):
status: New → Won't Fix
