Thank you, @davecramer!

Updating `OPENSSL_VERSION` to `3_3_6` indeed did the trick! The workflow is now moving forward _(building postgres now)_. 👍🏻 

That said, I’m still a bit puzzled, though. I went through the (failed) logs and couldn’t spot the actual reason it was failing. It looks like the download _completed_ successfully:

So **why did the install step fail?**

Is there another place where 3_3_5 / 3_3_6 is being referenced that I’m missing?

Mostly asking because it might be worth improving the error message and saving the next “noob” from running into the same thing the next time the OpenSSL version bumps again 😄
