OpenSSL v1.0.0 dependency for BG1EE, BGSoD, and BG2EE Linux executables

Hi, I haven't been able to launch BaldursGate on my 64-bit multilib Gentoo linux system ever since v2.6 was released because it depends on an older version of OpenSSL. When will Beamdog release a new version that is compatible with the current version of OpenSSL v1.1 which has been out for quite some time now? Attempting to trick BaldursGate into thinking that the v1.0 libraries are available, by symlinking libssl.so.1.1 to libssl.so.1.0.0, and libcrypto.so.1.1 to libcrypto.so.1.0.0 doesn't work. See screenshot attached. Are there any other ways to get it to work? Installing the older version of OpenSSL on my system won't work with Gentoo, as I haven't figured out how to have both v1.0 and v1.1 installed without breaking stuff. otom1hlwqeqn.png

    It would be nice to get support for 1.1 and libssl3 in the various games.
    Supporting lts is ok, but not just a 4 year old 18.04 Ubuntu.
    I am sure we can get this less version dependent and with recent versions of our favourite distros.
