Hi!

I'm using elasticsearch-curator in RHEL8 but it's giving this this error:  
Traceback (most recent call last):

```auto

  File "/usr/local/lib/python3.6/ssl.py", line 101, in <module>
ImportError: libssl.so.10: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

```

My ssl library is at:

```auto
$ ls -l /usr/lib64/python3.6/ssl.py
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 42702 Dec 5 2019 /usr/lib64/python3.6/ssl.py

```

As per [https://github.com/elastic/curator/issues/1241](https://github.com/elastic/curator/issues/1241)  
it looks like curator is a binary that needs to be compiled in the OS where it runs.  
I don't see here any mention about support for RHEL8:

> **[YUM repository | Curator Reference \[5.8\] | Elastic](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/client/curator/current/yum-repository.html)**

Where can I download the version of curator compatible with RHEL8.2?

```auto
Linux curator-server 4.18.0-193.14.3.el8_2.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jul 20 15:02:29 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

```

I don't have issues with the elasticsearch and kibana versions (I've used the same in RHEL7 and RHEL8)

I'm using RHEL 8.2 EUS if it matters
