Description
How Qt actually finds OpenSSL libraries doesn't seem to be documented. When it is dynamically trying to find it at runtime, it tries to load it from many places and can easily try to load a wrong one. Perhaps the search logic could be documented (for example it loads unversioned libssl.so on Linux). There is also -openssl-linked that passes that responsibility to the runtime linker where the situation is different.
