Description André Draszik 2014-10-13 10:33:04 UTC 
The openssl binaries libcrypto.so and libssl.so contain contain absolute paths for OPENSSLDIR (which contains the config and certificates, etc.)

Hence they are not relocatable via sstate.

While a wrapper script could be created (using utils.bbclass create_wrapper) for usr/bin/openssl, this wrapper would not solve the problem if an application is linked against libcrypto.so or libssl.so directly.
