It seems your OPENSSL is of a older version the error below can be down to this factor.

Code:

undefined reference to `OPENSSL_init_crypto'

First check with

Code:

./openssl version -a

The you should look to set compile flags to point to where you installed openssl.

I found someone on Google who has the same issue as yours and like the above said the issue is related to OpenSSL.

According to this https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/8706
You have to completely uninstall the old version of OpenSSL and install the latest one. You can find the solution under this post.

Its seems like a sys problems, ambiguous.
in those cases i recommend to uninstall the package, check the versions and choose a stable version.
if it doesnt work, clear the system.

please check it
