Re: Facing error in git-imap-send while compiling Git

Hi All,
I'll admit I'm quite perplexed with this OpenSSL problem that I'm
facing. Here's what I've done along with their results:
1. eroen and Jack Bates' suggestions
(https://lore.kernel.org/git/66967e0e-8bd9-f4b6-d2d4-ccce9004f42e@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/)
2. I've also implemented Johannes' suggestions, and I'm still facing
the same problem.Here's the final diff:

Also, on a different note: I'm actually really interested in applying
to Git for GSoC, and I should be doing Git microprojects right now to
properly cement my chance of doing GSoC with Git. Many aspiring GSoC
applicants already been asking, enquiring and maybe even working about
Git microprojects, as evident from the mailing list.

So while I'm not saying that I'm in deep trouble and all this OpenSSL
v1.1.1 issue fixing is completely useless (I'm learning quite a lot
along the way and able to understand the project structure), but
saying that I'm not worried about my GSoC prospects of working in this
organization would honestly be false :) . I love git, I would love
contributing to Git, but I'd love to do a GSoC Summer with Git much
more than the rest.

Please let me know where am I going wrong. If there's any other system
packages that I can download so that I can focus on other Git issues
and this one simultaneously, please let me know. Here are my system
specifications (let me know if you need anything more specific):
---
OS: Ubuntu 18.04
Linux Kernel: 5.3
OpenSSL Version: 1.1.1d

Apologies for the long email,
Thank You,
