Won't open if running an updated version of Openssl

Open eevielutional opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

Mint is only looking for the old 1.1 versions of Openssl, and won't detect the fully updated Openssl 3 on my system.

I'm also witnessing this on Fedora 40.

$ openssl --version
OpenSSL 3.3.2 3 Sep 2024 (Library: OpenSSL 3.3.2 3 Sep 2024)
$ ./drg_mod_integration
./drg_mod_integration: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any plans on pushing out an updated release for this? This issue means you cannot use mint on distros like Fedora 40 or Bazzite. Or SteamOS.

Tried to run it and ran into the same issue on Fedora 41. Would be nice to see support added for the newer OpenSSL, since it seems 1.1.1 has been de-listed from the package manager (DNF5).

@trumank I hate to ping, but this issue completely breaks the binary build on most modern Linux distros. Could we get an updated binary?

This is also an issue on Ubuntu 24.10 (a modern linux distro). There is a work around, but it seems quite involved and somewhat risky if you don't know what you're doing (me). OpenSSL 1.1.1 is deprecated and no longer supported, as others have said.

^Use the second answer down (by A.K.) and refer to the link below if it doesn't work. Seems it involves making a new directory to install the 'ancient' version of OpenSSL so as not to expose your system to unnecessary risk.

*Open SSL 1.1.1 EOL'd ~two years ago:

**I just did followed the linked directions (including adding the certificates from the second link) and it still didn't work. Will try again soon, next time I will export into .bashrc

Same issue on Endeavoros, this is my output.

./drg_mod_integration 
./drg_mod_integration: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Tried to use the windows binary under proton through bottles, it launches but clicking a text field causes mint to freeze.
