This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 29 development cycle.
Changing version to '29'.

The code seems in need of porting to OpenSSL 1.1.1.

Comment 7 Petr Pisar 2019-07-09 12:44:07 UTC 
Upstream moved to <https://github.com/kouya/snownews>. 1.5.13 release changed license to GPLv3 and 1.6.10 removed a dependency on OpenSSL.
Comment 8 Petr Pisar 2019-07-09 13:16:44 UTC 
I "fixed" by build-required old OpenSSL. I recommend upgrading this package in Rawhide to fix this issue properly. I could back port to upstream fix due to a change in the license.
