Solution 1:[1]

for me, running pkg upgrade && pkg update has solved the problem

Solution 2:[2]

Orrr... just

pkg update openssl-tool

or

apt update openssl-tool

Is the same.

;)

Solution 3:[3]

openssl-tool may not be installed if you are running latest termux

Try running:

apt upgrade && apt update
apt install openssl-tool

Solution 4:[4]

The google play version of Termux is deprecated.

Installing from Fdroid has solved this problem for me. https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Installation
