I've written a program that must be GPL3-licensed (sadly), which uses this package, but is the Linux / MacOS distributions of this package incompatible with use by a GPL3-licensed library because of the inclusion of OpenSSL 1.1.1?

I know that that version of OpenSSL (and any version <3.0.0) is incompatible with GPL in general, but depending on how it is included / called in opencv-python it might not matter, since I neither need nor use functions that depend on OpenSSL in my package.
