cd /usr/local/src
curl --remote-name https://www.openssl.org/source/openssl-VERSION.tar.gz
Extract the archive and move into the folder.
tar -xzvf openssl-VERSION.tar.gz
cd openssl-VERSION
Compile and Install
Configure, compile and install into /usr/local/openssl-VERSION.
./config --prefix=/usr/local/openssl-VERSION
make
make install
Create a symbolic link that points /usr/local/openssl to /usr/local/openssl-VERSION.
ln -s openssl-VERSION /usr/local/openssl
Shell
