Maybe your mirror is out of date, website says it is available https://archlinuxarm.org/packages/aarch64/openssl-1.1

Edit: i just checked and couldn't find it on any mirror and they seemed a bit out of date, I don't know why is that, I don't have any arm devices aside from couple old android phones.

I'm on Arch Linux ARM. For some reason openssl-1.1 wasn't available from my package database. I tried to download it from the Arch Linux ARM official packages list online, but the download was 404. I just changed it to 1.0 because it's close to 1.1 and it seemed to work fine.

Replacing openssl-1.1 by openssl in PKGBUILD seems enough in Manjaro. Only two errors messages during build tests:

0:11:34 load avg: 1.34 [371/400] test_urllibnet -- test_urllib2net skipped (resource denied)
0:11:35 load avg: 1.34 [372/400] test_urlparse -- test_urllibnet skipped (resource denied)

supplementary to what @eduardolucioac wrote here a tiny 1-liner to "fix" that issue for those weird ;) Manjaro users:

sed -i "s/openssl-1.1/openssl/g;s/test_urllibnet//g" PKGBUILD

@eduardolucioac Thank you very much!

Manjaro users can also use pacman :)

It is true that many people don't need this and just blindly update, but unfortunately some still do (for more or less valid reason).

Also this package is not faulty, it works as intended.

Not prickly, just advice for people that are willing to read.

You are wrong, python2 is not 100% compatible with openssl3. There are patches to make it work (to my knowledge fedora and debian have some variation of them) but I just decided to use openssl-1.1 as in my opinion it is easier solution.

Back then this package was in repos it also used gentoo patches.

The best choice would probably be to not write garbage comments anyway.

Packages in the AUR aren't even supported by Arch :) So don't let anyone tell you not to come here and talk to maintainers. The vast majority of them aren't this prickly and many of them use Manjaro themselves.

Seems like the maintainer here has an axe to grind with Manjaro users accessing their precious Arch package (which copies from Gentoo ;). I wouldn't be surprised if this change was made on purpose to cause this little drama given that the proper 'openssl' dependency works everywhere ergo it's being held back by this package, not Manjaro.

The best choice would probably be to ignore updates for this end-of-life garbage anyway.

@eduardolucioac Theoretically you shouldn't come here with manjaro problems.
