sudo not working also. so can’t install openssl manually

Try installing OpenSSL via nix

Also, see the documentation on how you can do this:

As @ReplitIronclad has said, install it using nix. I have encountered issues where my programs cannot find it even when it is installed, and I have to add the nix path to OpenSSL.out to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
