Resolving missing link to libcrypto/openssl on OSX

rlirli commented May 12, 2020

brew install openssl installs the newest 1.1 version of openSSL.
Therefore the linking commands with libcrypto version 1.0.0 proposed above would not work.

ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/ should be
ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.1.dylib /usr/local/lib/. However, this did not work for my use case either.


What did work was downgrading to openSSL 1.0 using @igormelao's code from this issue:

brew uninstall openssl 
brew uninstall openssl
brew install https://github.com/tebelorg/Tump/releases/download/v1.0.0/openssl.rb

There are 2 uninstall commands to make sure any OpenSSL v1.1 is removed, and any dead v1.0 is removed, before installing v1.0.

@vcjuliocesar Did you try downgrading your openSSL as I mentioned in the comment before:

I got another problem when I uninstall 1.1 after install 1.0.

ruby-2.6.5/lib/ruby/2.6.0/x86_64-darwin17/digest/sha1.bundle, 9): Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib/libssl.1.1.dylib

so I figure out to install both.

at first, cp the /usr/local/opt/openssl to /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2t
then, uninstall 1.0 and reinstall 1.1.

brew uninstall openssl
brew install openssl@1.1

finally, link the old version to /usr/local/opt/openssl with below

ln -sf /usr/local/Cellar/openssl/1.0.2t /usr/local/opt/openssl

ANDDDDD... after accidentally upgraded openssl (and brew), this is no longer working for me. somehow.

But I find this working (no need to do the last step - brew switch... )

Great work - but when I try the app (after giving it permission etc) - I get the following error popup:

Unable to load OpenSSL library files: libssl.1.1.dylib and libcrypto.1.1.dylib

If you are using a conda env, simply use

conda install -c bioconda samtools openssl=1.0

For compilers to find openssl@1.1 you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/include"

when you perform this export commands in the terminal above issue got resolved for me.

In M1 chip computers, the installations are placed in /opt/homebrew/opt instead of /usr/local/opt.
So we should use the following:

export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/curl/lib -L/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/curl/include -I/user/local/opt/openssl/include"

for what it's worth, I got through a compile (v2.48) with:

./configure LDFLAGS=-L/opt/homebrew/lib/ CFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/include"

on my M1 mac. Zero symlinks or copying of files!
