Description M. G. Christensen 2012-01-24 18:17:29 UTC 
Attempt to install Amaya from rpm package results as follows:

# ls amaya*
amaya_wx-11.4.4-0.x86_64.rpm

# rpm -ivh amaya*
error: Failed dependencies:
        libcrypto.so.0.9.8()(64bit) is needed by amaya_wx-11.4.4-0.x86_64
        libraptor.so.1()(64bit) is needed by amaya_wx-11.4.4-0.x86_64
        libssl.so.0.9.8()(64bit) is needed by amaya_wx-11.4.4-0.x86_64

Creating symbolic links fails to resolve the dependencies.  libcrypto.so.1.0.0f appears in my /lib64 directory as the ls command shows, and appears to be the only version installed on my system:

# ls /lib64/libcryp*
/lib64/libcrypt-2.14.90.so  /lib64/libcryptsetup.so.1
/lib64/libcrypto.so.10      /lib64/libcryptsetup.so.1.2.0
/lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0f  /lib64/libcrypt.so.1

but after making the link,

# ln -s /lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0f libcrypto.so.0.9.8

running the rpm command again results as above, with the libcrypt.so dependency not found.

Amaya would install using the rpm option --nodeps, but then would not run.

On September 6, 2012, I installed libraptor using the command sudo yum install raptor*.  Four packages were installed.  Now using rpm to install the rpm package of Amaya 11.4.4 only results in the report of two missing libraries, libcrypto and libssl.  Anyone else have a resolution to this?

September 11, 2012: I again installed Amaya with the command 

sudo rpm -Uvh --nodeps amaya_wx-11.4.4-0.x86_64.rpm

I next linked to libcrypto and libssl as follows:

sudo ln -s /lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0j /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

and 

sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.0j /usr/lib64/libssl.so.0.9.8

Started Amaya from the command line, received a lot of error messages about missing files in my .amaya directory, but Amaya started and appears to function.  The second time starting Amaya, no error messages.

I imagine I will have to reset the links every time there is an update, or link instead to the links libcrypto.so.10 and libssl.so.10.

For me, it seems the problem is solved, just my not knowing where Amaya was looking for the libraries.
