[SOLVED] Deb Stretch lacks libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64

#1 Post by _nobody_ »

Interesting... The newest Debian stretch release (Debian 9.4.0 amd64) does NOT have libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64.deb included in the set of neither basic, neither extended packages??? :mrgreen:

Why, that is the question?

As one of main/one of the examples, viber installation does NOT work without libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64.deb .

Debian admins should fix this issue, don't you agree!? :shock:

To fix this problem, the following should be done:

Code: Select all

[1] go to: https://packages.debian.org/jessie/amd64/libssl1.0.0/download
[2] Download: security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl/libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64.deb
[3] cd ~/Download
[4] sudo dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64.deb
Do we, Debian people, have major problem here? :evil:

Maybe it is not needed for any of the other pkgs in stretch? Why would a single older ver of a lib be included if it's not needed?

I think viber should fix their software, or make it open-source so other people can fix it. I think you could request that the libssl1.0.0 pkg be added back to the repo, and if you were willing to maintain it, maybe it would be accepted for buster?

Are you aware of any security implications of using the older ver? Not saying there are, but I would consider that before advising other people to do it.

It looks like we have "Muhammad vs mountain" problem. Who will come to who? In the story, Muhammad finally came to the mountain but what will be the case in our story? Viber is www application, Debian users need Viber and Viber obviously does not need to follow the Debian's evolution pace. Conclusion?

It will do you no good to kvetch here. Debian is not going to add an obsolete library to please you or Viber. It falls to the Viber packagers to build against Stretch. If they refuse, you may have success with an Ubuntu package that was built against newer ssl libraries.

If googling for an answer and downloading *one* older lib is a problem to you, how did you manage to install Debian in the first place? :mrgreen:
But then again, I see a bunch of smileys in your post, so I suspect it's sarcasm.

All you, people, are correct.

The curent libssl used in Stretch is: https://packages.debian.org/stretch/libssl1.0.2

So, to solve Viber problem in Stretch, the following is required:

Code: Select all

Download: security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl/libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64.deb
cd ~/Download
sudo dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u8_amd64.deb
This issue is solved! Admins, please, lock this thread. :!:

Thank you,

... and to add a more logical side as to perhaps why Debian does not include SSL 1.0.0 -
https://security.stackexchange.com/ques ... as-ssl-1-0

To be fair to the point of the op, I too had this issue when installing Eagle 7.7.0 - it also required SSL 1.0.0
Fortunately since I also use the latest build from Eagle (now AutoCad), they include the lib and I simply do a sim-link.
