Containerized development is definitely a good idea if you can fit it 
into your workflow! Which image are you using to build with?

Taking a look through the aswf-docker project (used by the Academy 
Software Foundation for CI purposes in the VFX industry), it seems the 
way they get around the OpenSSL 1.1.x issue is by manually passing the 
header and library search paths to configure.

They are also using the openssl11-devel package provided by EPEL.

Cheers,
