Hello,

ubuntu 18.04 is the worse distro to work with when having to use libssl.
One of their upgrades introduced mixed use of libssl 1.0 and 1.1, with
1.1 being one of the early releases in 1.1.x series. First thing that
broke (or was reported) was related to mysql tls connections and getting
stuck stuck after a while, when using the original mysql server (not
mariadb). I dug in the code of libmysqlclient and libssl for a while on
ubuntu 18.04, but couldn't sort it out, they are pretty huge code base
and upgrading to 20.04 seemed to solve it.

But it may worth upgrading to "ubuntu-ng" aka debian :-) -- to my
knowledge, debian buster (10) is known to be reliable with tls, debian
11 is at its very beginning, so not much experience with it yet.

Cheers,
Daniel
