Motivation for this change
Telethon can use libssl to speed up encryption, this is especially useful when sending files.
See https://docs.telethon.dev/en/latest/developing/philosophy.html:
The
ctypes.util.find_library
call fails on NixOS because the environmental variables that get checked (byldconfig
,gcc
, etc) are obviously missing so we patch it with a direct path to libssl.Things done
