Git annex 400 Error when initializing remote S3 repository

I'm trying to initialize a git annex remote repository using: 

git annex initremote cloud type=S3 encryption=none bucket=some-bucket

But I am getting the following error:

initremote cloud (checking bucket...) (creating bucket in US...) git-annex: S3Error {s3StatusCode = Status {statusCode = 400, statusMessage = "Bad Request"}, s3ErrorCode = "InvalidRequest", s3ErrorMessage = "The authorization mechanism you have provided is not supported. Please use AWS4-HMAC-SHA256.", s3ErrorResource = Nothing, s3ErrorHostId = Just "", s3ErrorAccessKeyId = Nothing, s3ErrorStringToSign = Nothing, s3ErrorBucket = Nothing, s3ErrorEndpointRaw = Nothing, s3ErrorEndpoint = Nothing}

I was following this manual.

How do I resolve this issue?

That's usually caused by an old openssl version.

I managed to solve it on an old server (Ubuntu 16) using conda to manage all git-annex dependencies inside an env and adding the signature=v4 arg to the initremote command

conda install -c conda-forge git-annex=*=alldep*

More info on installing git-annex with conda in its forum: https://git-annex.branchable.com/install/conda/
