Issues building Nginx using boringssl

Hello,
I encountered the following error when using boringssl to build Nginx:
checking for OpenSSL library ... not found
checking for OpenSSL library in /usr/local/ ... not found
checking for OpenSSL library in /usr/pkg/ ... not found
checking for OpenSSL library in /opt/local/ ... not found
./auto/configure: error: SSL modules require the OpenSSL library.
You can either do not enable the modules, or install the OpenSSL library
into the system, or build the OpenSSL library statically from the source
with nginx by using --with-openssl=<path> option.

At first I thought it was caused by openssl not existing, but when I ran openssl version -a, everything was normal:
root@iZ2hmeokcpbj42Z ~/nginx # openssl version -a
OpenSSL 3.0.11 19 Sep 2023 (Library: OpenSSL 3.0.11 19 Sep 2023)

Later my friend and I discovered that the latest boringssl compatible OpenSSL version seems to have been upgraded to 3.2.x, but I am not sure if this is the problem. The final solution was to switch to https://github.com/google/boringssl /commit/c39e6cd9ec5acebb6de2adffc03cfe03b07f08ab this commit.But I don't think switching to a previous commit to build is a perfect solution, so I'd like to ask for some help.

My build steps are as follows:
apt update
apt install build-essential ca-certificates zlib1g-dev libpcre3 libpcre3-dev tar unzip libssl-dev wget curl git cmake ninja-build mercurial libunwind-dev pkg-config

git clone https://github.com/google/boringssl.git
cd boringssl
mkdir build
cd build
cmake -GNinja ..
ninja
cd ../..

git clone --recurse-submodules -j8 https://github.com/google/ngx_brotli
cd ngx_brotli/deps/brotli
mkdir out && cd out
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DCMAKE_C_FLAGS="-Ofast -m64 -march=native -mtune=native -flto -funroll-loops -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -Wl,--gc-sections" -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS ="-Ofast -m64 -march=native -mtune=native -flto -funroll-loops -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -Wl,--gc-sections" -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=./installed ..
cmake --build . --config Release --target brotlienc
cd ../../../..

hg clone https://hg.nginx.org/nginx
cd nginx
./auto/configure --user=www --group=www --prefix=/www/server/nginx --with-pcre --add-module=/root/ngx_brotli --with-http_v2_module --with-stream --with-stream_ssl_module --with-http_ssl_module --with-http_gzip_static_module --with-http_gunzip_module --with-http_sub_module --with-http_flv_module --with-http_addition_module --with-http_realip_module --with-http_mp4_module --with-ld -opt=-Wl,-E --with-cc-opt=-Wno-error --with-ld-opt=-ljemalloc --with-http_dav_module --with-http_v3_module --with-cc-opt=-I ../boringssl/include --with-ld-opt='-L../boringssl/build/ssl -L../boringssl/build/crypto'
