Failed to install cpprestsdk

I am getting this error from `pacaur -S cpprestsdk`:

I tried to install  openssl-1.0 as recommended in some posts, but didn't help.

Re: Failed to install cpprestsdk

The comments say to do more than just install openssl-1.0. This is an incompatibility with openssl 1.1, so you have to force it to use 1.0 as well.

Re: Failed to install cpprestsdk

True,
There is a comment on the actual cpprestsdk page which I missed.

It does not appear this will be fixed soon. Here's the issue in their repo: https://github.com/Microsoft/cpprestsdk/issues/56
As a workaround, you can the following cmake flags to the PKGBUILD:

-DOPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR=/usr/include/openssl-1.0 \
-DOPENSSL_SSL_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/openssl-1.0/libssl.so \
-DOPENSSL_CRYPTO_LIBRARY=/usr/lib/openssl-1.0/libcrypto.so \

If you have openssl-1.0 in the specified path of course.

Also, applying this patch works with the latest openssl.
Thanks.
