I can send you the source RPM for openssl 1.1.1c which was an earlier FIPS

AFAICT the forks of 1.1.1 which offer FIPS certification all patch the common

should work fine. PFA an updated version which I propose we go ahead with.

That sounds correct from my memory of it.

I have not done any actual testing (yet), but on quick scan this part looks suspicious:

Rather than:
 "Yes enables builtin crypto, No unconditionally disables and OpenSSL "
                                                              ^^^^^^^
 "will disable if OpenSSL is in FIPS mode"

I think that should say:
 "Yes enables builtin crypto, No unconditionally disables and fips "
                                                              ^^^^
 "will disable if OpenSSL is in FIPS mode"
