How to install latest version of openssl Mac OS X El Capitan

I have used brew install openssl to download and install openssl v1.0.2f, however, it comes back saying:

A CA file has been bootstrapped using certificates from the system
keychain. To add additional certificates, place .pem files in
  /usr/local/etc/openssl/certs

and run
  /usr/local/opt/openssl/bin/c_rehash

This formula is keg-only, which means it was not symlinked into /usr/local.

Apple has deprecated use of OpenSSL in favor of its own TLS and crypto libraries

Generally there are no consequences of this for you. If you build your
own software and it requires this formula, you'll need to add to your
build variables:

    LDFLAGS:  -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib
    CPPFLAGS: -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include

And when I do openssl version -a it always gives me:

OpenSSL 0.9.8zg 14 July 2015
built on: Jul 31 2015
platform: darwin64-x86_64-llvm
options:  bn(64,64) md2(int) rc4(ptr,char) des(idx,cisc,16,int) blowfish(idx) 
compiler: -arch x86_64 -fmessage-length=0 -pipe -Wno-trigraphs -fpascal-strings -fasm-blocks -O3 -D_REENTRANT -DDSO_DLFCN -DHAVE_DLFCN_H -DL_ENDIAN -DMD32_REG_T=int -DOPENSSL_NO_IDEA -DOPENSSL_PIC -DOPENSSL_THREADS -DZLIB -mmacosx-version-min=10.6
OPENSSLDIR: "/System/Library/OpenSSL"

How can I replace the old version with the new one? I've searched a lot on how to do this, but the solutions online don't seem to work for me...

Solution 1:

Execute following commands:

brew update
brew install openssl
echo 'export PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl/bin:$PATH"' >> ~/.bash_profile
source ~/.bash_profile

You will have the latest version of openssl installed and accessible from cli (command line/terminal). Since the third command will add export path to .bash_profile, the newly installed version of openssl will be accessible across system restarts.

Solution 2:

Only

export PATH=$(brew --prefix openssl)/bin:$PATH in ~/.bash_profile

has worked for me! Thank you mipadi.

Solution 3:

Try creating a symlink, make sure you have openssl installed in /usr/local/include first.

ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/{version}/include/openssl /usr/local/include/openssl
