This isn't something we've looked at adding as the world has mostly moved on. Is your issue here with 3rd party binaries, or open source packages, or your own code?

OpenSSL 1.1.1 reached EoL upstream in September 2023. There is extended support available through OpenSSL, which is something we can look at. It may limit the time period that a theoretical OpenSSL 1.1.1 package for AL2023 would be supported. Would this be an issue?

Hi, thanks for getting back to me so quick. I'm trying to install mssql 2022, which requires openssl1.1 I don't know what microsofts plans are to migrate to openssl 3.

For the use case of Microsoft SQL Server - does running in a container as documented at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/linux/quickstart-install-connect-docker?view=sql-server-ver16&pivots=cs1-bash solve your problem? You then get an AL2023 host and all those features, as well as an environment to run SQL Server that's well documented by Microsoft.

I was hoping to avoid that, but might be the best option here since I'm afraid openssl won't be the only problem.
