You might have come across this error while dealing with the openssl module.
Inorder to solve this issue follow the following steps
Step 1: Install openssl using brew
brew install openssl
Step 2: Copy copy libssl.1.0.0.dylib and libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib
cd /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.1f/lib
sudo cp libssl.1.0.0.dylib libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/lib/
Note the bold folder name. There will be change in that depending on your openssl version
Edit (2019 July) If you are getting permission denied error even after sudo. Try copying to `/usr/local/lib ` instead. Thanks to George Hotz from comments to pointing it out.
Step 3: Remove the existing links
sudo rm libssl.dylib libcrypto.dylib
sudo ln -s libssl.1.0.0.dylib libssl.dylib
sudo ln -s libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib libcrypto.dylib
That’s it. Now try installing what you have been trying to install.
I hope this helps. If you need any further clarification, do comment.

Did a brew unlink openssl to get the path and version and then followed the tutorial.
Awesome !
For sudo cp libssl.1.0.0.dylib libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/lib/ it says operation not permitted
copy in /usr/local/lib instead.
Woohoo! Worked for me, thank you!
