i tried :[root@Fedora10-test hgs]# yum install libcrypto.so.6
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
No package libcrypto.so.6 available.
Nothing to do

and :
[root@Fedora10-test hgs]# yum install libssl.so.6
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
No package libssl.so.6 available.
Nothing to do

it turns out fedora 10 has libssl.so.7 and libcrypto.so.7 but this is stopping yum update working
thanks for any help

I'm not a fedora man but I'd suggest disabling the EPEL repository and try and update then.

[srochford]

I remember having similar problems with FreeBSD and read various recommendations that you just make a symlink to point to (say) libssl.so.7

this feels horribly wrong but it might be worth a try :-)

[llawwehttam]

what exactly do you you mean by that and how do i do it
thanks

[Gatt]

do this:

# cd /lib
# ln -s libssl.so.7 libssl.so.6
# ls


A Symbolic link is a bit like a shortcut - so libssl.so.6 acts like a shortcut to libssl.so.7

if you do ls -l in the /lib you will see something like this:

# ls -l 
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      11 2009-02-20 11:24 libssl.so.6 -> libssl.so.7
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root      16 2009-02-18 21:06 libssl.so.7 -> libssl.so.0.9.8g

[llawwehttam]

didnt really work but thanks anyway

yum install openssl

Maybe?

[llawwehttam]

[root@Fedora10-test hgs]# yum install openssl
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Parsing package install arguments
Package openssl-0.9.8g-12.fc10.i686 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

thats the problem it needs an earlier version

[RabbieBurns]

what does the results of Gatts suggestion show?

ls -l /lib/libcrypto.so.*

[Gatt]

yeah checked my F10 install - openssl provides libssl.so.7 not 6...
Cant find any rpm that provides 6 yet

[llawwehttam]

[root@Fedora10-test hgs]# ls -l libssl.so.7 libssl.so.6
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2009-02-20 12:08 libssl.so.6 -> libssl.so.7
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 2009-02-20 12:08 libssl.so.7 -> libssl.so.7

any other suggestions???

libssl.so.7 is linked to itself? (if colour is on it appears red)

do an ls -l libssl* and look for something like libssl.so.0.9.8g
then remove the libssl.so.7 (rm libssl.so.7) and recreate it to the libssl.so.0.9.8g from earlier.

# cd /lib
# ls -l libssl*
# rm libssl.so.7
# ln -s libssl.so.0.9.8g libssl.so.7

(replace libssl.so.0.9.8g with yours..)

no difference

[llawwehttam]

oooh but for libcrypt i get

[root@Fedora10-test lib]# ls -l libcrypt*
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 49512 2008-12-08 13:33 libcrypt-2.9.so

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 2009-02-20 11:32 libcrypt.so.6 -> libcrypt.so.7

last bit is red???

[Gatt]

it should be

libcrypto.so.6 -> libcrypto.so.7

your missing the 'o' and the end of libcrypto
remove the symlink and re-create it
