Drop to reference OpenSSL::VERSION on gemspec

[hsbt]

It failed to test with the ruby core repository.

Why does it fail?

[hsbt]

I don't know that. You should care to keep build status with this repository and ruby core repo.

Agreed.

Can you explain how I can pull it into ruby core repo in order to run tests? Is there documentation?

[hsbt]

There is no complete guide for maintaining the default gems yet.

I always do the following instructions before releasing the new version.

1. You pick the related commits from ruby/ruby repo into this repository.
2. Run the https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/tool/sync_default_gems.rb#L5. After that, you copy files from the upstream of default gems.

3a. If you got the green status of test suite of ruby repo, You can commit it
3b-1. If you got the red status of test suite of ruby repo, You should fix it on ruby repo.
3b-2. You pick the 3b-1 fixes from ruby repo into the upstream of the default gems.

I will write the guide with this instructions to the documentation of ruby repo 😇

Thanks, I am happy to do this before we release 2.2.0 so we can fix these issues properly. I won't be able to take a look until next week.

I'm happy to investigate the reason for this.

I just found a maybe-similar issue with psych in ruby/psych#433. psych and openssl have in common that they are both default gems, and they are both required internally by rubygems. That's why I think the issues might be related.

I'll post here any findings.
