Presumably you just built the packages linked against openssl, not 'everything'?

I would use the dose satisfiability-checker to work out a build
order. Of course there probably isn't a linear build order because
openssl is involved in some package bootstap loops. (It's some years
since I last did this analysis but I guess this hasn't changed).

Did you get anywhere with this?

It might be easiest to make a list of packages that build-dep on
openssl, then rebuild them all in arbitrary order. Then worry about
rescheduling any that fail? I don't know enough about the changes
between 1.1 and 3 APIs/ABIs to know if this makes any sense, or if we
will need to put more serious work into ordering to avoid breakage?

I have a load of other things I should be doing too, but using dose to
make some lists and setting off some arm64 builds should be a think I
could spent a day or two on soonish if you've not already set it off.
