libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I've just updated to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and my libs using OpenSSL just stopped working. Looks like Ubuntu switched to the version 3.0 of OpenSSL.

For example, poetry stopped working:

ImportError: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Is there an easy fix ? For example, having libssl.so.1.1 available without having to uninstall OpenSSL 3 (I don't know if it's even possible).

Solution

  • This fixes it (a problem with packaging in 22.04):

    wget http://nz2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.22_amd64.deb

sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.22_amd64.deb

    PS: If the link is expired, check http://nz2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/?C=M;O=D for a valid one.

    Current version is: libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.22_amd64.deb
