To answer in more detail, the implementations have vastly different APIs, so
almost all software gets written for a particular encryption library, not for
multiple libraries.
Due to the historic instability of the openssl API (not to mention their
security track record), rsyslog has been written to use the gnuTLS library
instead.
I think it's even a bit more than 'patches welcome' as well. Maintaining support
for openssl is a significant amount of ongoing work. Someone looking to add such
support would need to convince Rainer that they would be sticking around to
support it going forward before such patches were accepted.
That said, it would be good to have support for multiple libraries, it's just a
lot of work.

Hi,
Does rsyslog support TLS implementation from OpenSSL? If yes, how can I
configure rsyslog to use OpenSSL?
