[erlang-questions] Fail to build ssl module on Mac 10.13 High Sierra

[yorda]

Dear erlang community,

I’m a admirer of the OTP as a engineer marvel and lurking around erlang and lfe community for a while. Here’s a question:

I built OTP(release version 20.3) on my Mac(10.13) using the otp_build autoconf command yesterday. Everything works perfectly so far except the missing ssl module, due to the build system can’t find openssl. I was told MacOS 10.13 has been switched from openssl to libressl, that might be the cause of the issue.

cheers,
Lin
