On Linux, the system’s core OpenSSL is often a dependency for sudo , ssh , and wget . Instead of removing, you can mask a custom installation by removing its PATH entry. Source installation (custom prefix): Simply delete the prefix directory:
# Fedora (modern) sudo dnf install openssl openssl-devel sudo yum install openssl openssl-devel For minimal environments (no man pages, etc.) sudo dnf install openssl-libs
