Caleb Hattingh added the comment: I struggled with this issue, and eventually found the recommendations about linking with homebrew's OpenSSL on StackOverflow or similar, and then only later found this issue here (and with it the link to the devguide); but the *first* places I looked were the

R. David Murray added the comment: My understanding is that when we build an osx release, we bundle openssl. So I think the appropriate solution here from our point of view is to include a pointer in the devguide about downloading and installing openssl-with-headers however it is we do that
