[Solved] /ldconfig: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1 is not a symbolic link

Hey guys!

I got some messages

/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1 is not a symbolic link

/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.1 is not a symbolic link

/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0 is not a symbolic link

/sbin/ldconfig: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 is not a symbolic link

I ran

sudo ldconfig -p | grep libcrypto

	libcryptopp.so.5.6 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libcryptopp.so.5.6
	libcrypto.so.1.1 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1
	libcrypto.so.1.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so.1.1
	libcrypto.so.1.0.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.0.0
	libcrypto.so.0.9.8 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8
	libcrypto.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libcrypto.so
	libcrypto.so (libc6) => /usr/lib32/libcrypto.so

sudo ldconfig -p | grep libssl

	libssl3.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libssl3.so
	libssl3.so (libc6) => /usr/lib32/libssl3.so
	libssl.so.1.1 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.1
	libssl.so.1.1 (libc6) => /usr/lib32/libssl.so.1.1
	libssl.so.1.0.0 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0
	libssl.so.0.9.8 (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8
	libssl.so (libc6,x86-64) => /usr/lib/libssl.so
	libssl.so (libc6) => /usr/lib32/libssl.so

And my knowledge ends here. Not much of a knowledge, right?
So, any help is appreciated.

Thank you in advance!

Try reinstall packages which are owner of that libs.

Recreate cache via ldconfig  then try again.

Just suggest.

Re: [Solved] /ldconfig: /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.1.1 is not a symbolic link

ldconfig looks whether there's similar lib with a more specific version and if so, warns if the library with the more generic version tag is not a symlink (because foo.so.1 is expected to link either foo.so.1.1 or foo.so.1.2 if either or both exist)
You probably installed 3rd party stuff during the openssl API change and now left a mess behind.

ls /usr/lib*/lib{crypto,ssl}*

No third party stuff but those were *.bak and *.old files. I deleted them. Everything's fine now.

Thank you very much, seth!
