#
# using rvm 1.18.14 (stable) and ruby 1.9.3-p392 a running Rails application all of a sudden stopped being able to 
# connect via SSL with "bad ecpoint" error. 
#
# Look at https://github.com/pivotal/pivotal_workstation/issues/221#issuecomment-14577443 for possible explanation
#
# Brew says openssl 1.0.1e is installed. 
# rvm pkg install openssl
#   installs 1.0.1c
# Then make rvm rubies use it:
# rvm reinstall all --with-open-ssl-dir=$rvm_path/usr --force
#
# This soloved the problem

prompt$ rvm  --debug requirements

This formula is keg-only.
Mac OS X already provides this software and installing another version in
parallel can cause all kinds of trouble.

The OpenSSL provided by OS X is too old for some software.
