OPENSSL_3.0.0 required by lynx and w3m and irssi

Hello and thanks in advance.

I've installed lynx/w3m/and irssi and all three gave me the same error

/usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3: version 'OPENSSL_3.0.0' not found (required by irssi)
/usr/lib/libssl.so.3: version 'OPENSSL_3.0.0' not found (required by irssi)

I attemped to modify links in an attempt to fix, I've done much searching and can not find a solution.

I'm all ears if anyone has any ideas for me.

That's a sure-fire way to break your system even more than you've already broken it.

Read the second bolded line.


No, it didn't "fix" anything. It just shifted the brokeness one space to the right. - jasonwryan

Thanks for your help. I ran pacman -Syu failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.3 exists in filesystem and the same with libssl. no packages were upgraded due to the errors.

That's because you broke your system even more by symlinking libraries.
Undo your attempted 'fix' and then update your system properly.

Re: OPENSSL_3.0.0 required by lynx and w3m and irssi

I have no idea how to reverse what I did. if I ls -l libssl* in the /usr/lib directory I show

libssl3.so
libssl.so.1.1
libssl.so.3 -> libssl3.so

Does this look correct?

Then post your shell history for the commands that you ran.

Totally cool, had no idea history would stick around after reboots.

I'm looking at history but I can't post since I have no browser/email etc yet. I've just installed arch and am trying to get things going.

I'm on a different machine accessing the forum.

Does this look correct?

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libssl3.so /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.1

Does it?

pacman -Qo /usr/lib/libssl3.so /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.1

returns

/usr/lib/libssl3.so is owned by nss 3.84-1
/usr/lib/libssl.so.1.1 is owned by openssl 1.1.1.q-1

I'm working on uploading history

Re: OPENSSL_3.0.0 required by lynx and w3m and irssi

I know what that returns - the question for you was whether it looks correct to symlink libssl.so.whatever at libssl3.so …

If there is supposed to be a link from /usr/lib/libssl3.so to /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.1 then no it does not look correct to me.

I would think that we need a link from libssl.so -> libssl3.so

Stop using `-Sy $package` it breaks things.

Yes that was incorrect.  Remove *all* the links you've manually created.  Then update your system properly.

Does "update your system properly mean pacman -Syu ?
