Hello,
We will not link to another version of openssl as it is ugly and may brake other conda environement.
Maybe we can force the openssl version in our samtools conda env, but I think it is a better solution to wait for a fix uptream (ie: the package specification of samtools).
And yes you can resolve it il local environment as user:
module load samtools/1.13; module load rsem/1.3.2
mkdir lib
cd lib
ln -s /shared/ifbstor1/software/miniconda/envs/samtools-1.13/lib/libcrypto.so libcrypto.so.1.0.0
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$(pwd)
samtools --version
