Looking at the recipe right now, I understand why key generation is broken for
native build (I should have been more careful). I see two ways of fixing it :
- either recreate the symlink in do_install_append_class_native
- or simply modifiyng the OPENSSL_CONF variable in the same task.

OK, I will provide some context because maybe my approach was wrong. In some
of my builds, I require some images to have a very specific configuration to
make OpenSSL use engines. My idea was to provide a package for this task since
the default file can not be overridden (and in fact shouldn't be for the native
build). This way, using RCONFLICTS I can provide a new configuration package
for these specific builds while maintaining the default behavior for all
others.
