[Mac] Installing OpenSSL with Homebrew

Tadashi Shigeoka ·  Sun, July 7, 2013

Here’s a memo of the installation procedure to use OpenSSL installed with Homebrew instead of Mac’s default OpenSSL.

Check Default OpenSSL

% which openssl
/usr/bin/openssl
% openssl version

Install OpenSSL with Homebrew

% brew install openssl
% brew link openssl --force
% which openssl 
/usr/local/bin/openssl
% openssl version
OpenSSL 1.0.1e 11 Feb 2013

That’s all from the Gemba.
