Tor + Homebrew & Mavericks OpenSSL

I'm trying to install the command-line version of Tor. I have actually already done so using Homebrew, but it gives me the following notice: 

[notice] Your OpenSSL version seems to be 0.9.8y. We recommend 1.0.0 or later.

So I updated OpenSSL. openssl version now yields in 1.0.1f.

When I run which openssl in Terminal, it returns with /usr/local/bin/openssl. When I run which tor in Terminal, it returns with /usr/local/bin/tor.

So why isn't Tor seeing the updated version of OpenSSL?

Solution

  • I uninstalled Tor via Homebrew and installed it again via Homebrew. I needed to have my $PATH set BEFORE I installed Tor. Doing this fixed my problem.
