While trying to resolve package dependency problems, I used conda to uninstall openssl, since this appeared to be one of the packages with unsatisfiable specifications. However, once I did this, everything broke:

conda became broken: any attempt to use conda results in "ERROR:root:code for hash md5 was not found" iPython become broken: I get the same error message pip is broken: again the same error message

I have tried brew install openssl, but this only returns a message that openssl is already installed.

You should use the --force to force a installation.

brew install openssl
brew link openssl --force

Apparently, there's also a reinstall command:

brew reinstall openssl
