*) The GOST engine was out of date and therefore it has been removed. An
up to date GOST engine is now being maintained in an external
repository. See: https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Binaries. Libssl
still retains support for GOST ciphersuites (these are only activated if
a GOST engine is present).
