RE: Newbie Alert: Missing Install Dependency

You need the older version of ssl if you search on google for
libcrypto.so.0 and libssl.so.0 I believe it is a older version.
What I did was just do a rpm -ivh on that package so I could have the .0
files and not overwrite the newer version.

Mike, et. Al:

Thanks for the detailed replies and responses, I just wanted to let everyone
know that Mike's response was the ticket.  The files existed, just were
symlinked differently.

I was able to install the package without any problems.

Thanks again,

All,

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I haven't had any luck
finding the answer in the documentation or otherwise...  I am
attempting to install 1.7-1 on my RH 7.1 machine and am
receiving the
following failed dependency
message:

[Note:  The RH7.1 is important to know, here.  This problem
won't happen on RH7.]

[root@devastator app]# rpm -ivh snort-1.7-1.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        libcrypto.so.0 is needed by snort-1.7-1
        libssl.so.0 is needed by snort-1.7-1

I do have a compatible version of libpcap installed, and I
also have
openssl installed (which appears to be linked to these two files
somehow...)

What to you get with a rpm -q --provides openssl?  I imagine
you get libcrypto.so.1 and libssl.so.1.  Check and see that
/usr/lib/libssl.so.0 and /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0 exist.  If
not, symlink them to the same thing their .so.1 files link to.

Then, rpm -ivh --nodeps snort-1.7-1.i386.rpm and you'll be
set.  Red Hat decided to only include symlinks for .so.1 in
their openssl package.  I have -no- idea why.  Basicly, you
have the proper ssl package for snort, it's just RPM that's
complaining.
