[package] openssl/1.1.1k: Cannot apply install_name_tool on libssl.dylib

[rockdreamer]

Why this is an issue

At $WORK, we apply a sequence of install_name_tool commands on all libraries to ensure that our packages load libraries consistently. This is hampered by openssl being built without a link option.

Package and Environment Details (include every applicable attribute)

• Package Name/Version: openssl/1.1.1k
• Operating System+version: Macos 10.15
• Compiler+version: apple-clang 11
• Conan version: conan 1.35.1
• Python version: Python 3.9.4

Conan profile (output of conan profile show default or conan profile show <profile> if custom profile is in use)

[settings]
arch=x86_64
arch_build=x86_64
build_type=Release
[options]
openssl:shared=True
[build_requires]
[env]

Steps to reproduce (Include if Applicable)

• Build openssl with openssl:shared=True on macos
• copy libssl1.1.dylib
• run install_name_tool -add_rpath fjweiopfgjqwefwefiojefreogirpgoqijrepgjioqrepjiogqrepjiogreqpjiogqrepjioqgrejpioqgrepjiogrqepjiogrqepijoqgrepjiogrqeijpogrqejiopgreqjgqojigoreqjiopgqrejipogqrejipogrepgorijeqpgjqiorepijogrqepjiogqrepjiogqrepjiogreqpjiogreqpjiogreqpjiogreqijpogreqijpogreqijopgreqpjioeqgrjierpo libssl.1.1.dylib

The result contains the solution to the issue at hand:

error: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin/install_name_tool: changing install names or rpaths can't be redone for: /Users/cbantaloukas/Downloads/lib_libssl.1.1.dylib (for architecture x86_64) because larger updated load commands do not fit (the program must be relinked, and you may need to use -headerpad or -headerpad_max_install_names)

Is it really a conan-center issue?

It works fine on my mac with latest openssl recipe revision. Do you confirm?

I've just checked on my machine, the same command (install_name_tool ...) runs successfully against libssl1.1.dylib built from openssl/1.1.1k (openssl:shared=True)

I pushed a PR with a failing test on purpose to check this. The check failed on at least one (older) version of the recipe. Pushing a slight change to the ldflags

I'm solving this with a locally modified copy of the recipe.
