That isn't the package name, it is text defined in openssl/opensslv.h
That happens when "OPENSSL_FIPS" is defined:

   # define OPENSSL_VERSION_NUMBER  0x101000b0L
   # ifdef OPENSSL_FIPS
   #  define OPENSSL_VERSION_TEXT    "OpenSSL 1.1.0k-fips-dev  xx XXX xxxx"
   # else
   #  define OPENSSL_VERSION_TEXT    "OpenSSL 1.1.0k-dev  xx XXX xxxx"
   # endif

Given no FIPS for 1.1.x, perhaps that "#ifdef" should be "#if 0".  With
1.1.x the "Configure" arguments should not mention "fips".

A better solution would be to have a separate part of the 1.1.0/1.1.1
headers error out hard (with #error) if attempting to build with
OPENSSL_FIPS defined.

This would preserve all the FIPS-related stuff (such as the above
version naming code) for when a FIPS module for 1.1.x is provided,
while leaving the blocking of accidental miscompilation in a clear
location having no other effects.

Enjoy
