Cannot find OpenSSL static library packages

Hi

I tried to statically link my application to OpenSSL, thus I was discovering whether there is such packages. Besides the outdated package openssl11-static for el7, or other similar ones, I couldn’t find the one that is suitable for static linking on packages.fedoraproject.org.

Is it possible on Fedora? Thanks.

I do not think so. It is not required for Fedora itself.
Fedora always wants dynamic linking for ease of updating libs with fixes.

You can always build openssl yourself and use your build of it.
