I have used brew install openssl to download and install openssl v1.0.2f, however, it comes back saying:

A CA file has been bootstrapped using c         


        

Answer 1

I can't reproduce your issue running El Cap + Homebrew 1.0.x

Upgrade to Homebrew 1.0.x, which was released late in September. Specific changes were made in the way openssl is linked. The project is on a more robust release schedule now that it's hit 1.0.

brew uninstall openssl

brew update && brew upgrade && brew cleanup && brew doctor

You should fix any issues raised by brew doctor before proceeding.

brew install openssl

Note: Upgrading homebrew will update all your installed packages to their latest versions.
