Apache is also a giant pain in the ass to get http2 support, you have to basically chuck out the distro packages and do everything from scratch (including OpenSSL) unless you're on a bleeding edge distro.

Not to mention that http2 is buggy in 2.4.25 (fixes in 2.4.26 will be out in May). And yes, without a bleeding edge distro good luck. Building apache from source is not only very straightforward but a great way to maximimize httpd performance (all modules static, only include the modules you need). OpenSSL on the other hand, that's distro specific, and definitely more involved.

at least RHEL/CentOS 7.4 will move to OpenSSL 1.0.2 for APLN and HTTP/2 support :)
