Yep, I was indeed trying to use Qt 5.15.0. I missed the openssl
config.log output so that totally flew over my head.

I did notice this which is why I was using v1.1.0 :)

Thanks for the link! Definitely helps shed some light on the issue.

I was able to build the project successfully the same way, but I guess
ultimately it's best to just use the supported versions :) . The release
cadence for pyqtdeploy (and the PyQt project in general) looks quick,
and I already see a bunch of cool updates in the pyqtdeploy mercurial
repository, including support for OpenSSL 1.1.1.

I'll just wait for a new release and use Qt 5.14.2 + OpenSSL 1.1.0 until
then :) .


Thank you again!
