FIPS Object Module Guide, which covers what steps you have to go through for
the result to be

I am having trouble compiling openssl-fips-1.1.1 on HP-UX. If anyone has any
ideas what I am
doing wrong, I would be much oblidged ;-)
I'm getting the following error message at the end of the make attempt:
