A few questions:
1.) Is something wrong with OpenSSL-1.0.2l in the book 8.1 ? ( error, no
commands echo and export...), Do I need perhaps  another version ?

No. We are only building libraries. Note that you need to be building OpenSSL-1.0.2m Libraries for security reasons. It is in the development version of the book.

2.) what do I have to expect with Qt compiled without OpenSSL ? I need Qt
only in my PC, for KDE and other applications like gpsPrune and so.

I have 271 entries of 'ssl' in my Qt5 log. It is linked into a lot of files in QtNetwork. I can't say exactly what you would miss, but I suspect KDE would have some issues if it were not available.

3.) Would a short remark in the book concerning openssl-1.0.2 in the
chapter Qt-5.9.1 not be usefull ? 1.0.2l is mentioned, that is true, but
it is easy to overlook that.

openssl-1.0.2 is referenced in eight places in blfs. We'll consider a note to emphasize the use of the older version. Unfortunately, some of the packages that use it are not updated very often.
