If you want to install it anywhere else, run config like this:
On Unix:
Don't build with support for deprecated APIs below the
specified version number. For example "--api=1.1.0" will
remove support for all APIS that were deprecated in OpenSSL
- version 1.1.0 or below.

call.

Build support for SSL/TLS ciphers that are considered "weak"
(e.g. RC4 based ciphersuites).
