      Linux distributions are moving towards OpenSSL 1.1, which is only supported starting with Botan 2. While Qt Creator does not require OpenSSL functionality, the distributions will typically build it with OpenSSL.

      That said, Botan 1 seems to be officially dead. However, Botan 2 is not API-compatible. However, it still allows for amalgamation.

      If you need more details, let me know.
