things I have tried so far

installing 2.3.0-dev fails the same way
un-linking/re-linking openssl did no improve it either
reinstalling openssl doesn’t improve it

This possibly relates to #889 but maybe not.

I just fought with this issue for the last couple of hours. In my case, although I had done a brew uninstall openssl and brew install openssl to ensure I had the latest openssl version, it turns out that I had at some point installed openssl098. So a simple brew uninstall openssl098 fixed the issue for me.

@mislav Last update: I uninstalled openssl on my mac.then I reinstalled it. then I force-linked it with brew link --overwrite openssl --force

And I could install 2.3.0

You can close the issue since you are the owner, but I can do it if you want.

I was unable to run brew uninstall openssl098: I got ‘Error: No available formula with the name “openssl098”’.

I did see it in brew list, though.

I ended up getting rid of it like this instead: mv /usr/local/Cellar/openssl098/ /tmp (Stored it in tmp just in case there would be issues.)

So far, so good. Was finally able to compile Ruby 2.3.3 on my macOS Sierra.

Thank you very much, @ljohnston . That worked for me too. After uninstalling openssl098, I was able to successfully reinstall Ruby 2.3 with openssl unlinked.

Had the same problem with two installed versions of openssl, 1.0.2g and 1.0.2j. Uninstalled all versions of openssl, re-installed the latest and installed Ruby v2.3.1 via

brew uninstall --force openssl
brew install openssl
rbenv install 2.3.1

Thank you all.

@henrik you just saved my macbook’s life. I was on the verge of smashing it against a wall out of frustration. Moving that openssl098 folder to /tmp allowed me to install ruby 2.3.3 without the crazy openssl error that I was getting for the past two days (fortunately I didn’t spend the whole time of those two days banging my head against it).

But this definitely fixed it. Thanks!
