Error when running vpkg-0.7.1 for Linux

[smartiniOnGitHub]

Hi,
running latest package (prebuilt) of vpkg (vpkg-0.7.1-linux) in a Ubuntu 19.10 PC x64 I get the following error:

vpkg-0.7.1-linux: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.0.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

But if I checkout sources and build with latest V stable (0.1.24), and run the built version all is good.
I wonder if the same happens to someone other, or if binary package as to be rebuilt.
Dimensions of files are different:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 sandrom users 283480 feb 14 16:45 ./vpkg-0.7.1-linux*  -> downloaded binary
-rwxr-xr-x 1 sandrom users 185744 mar 19 17:58 /usr/local/bin/vpkg*  -> built today

Last, note that if I try to build with latest V sources I got compilation errors but I know there are too many moving parts in V at the moment.

Hope it's good to someone other.
Bye, sandro

You probably have a different version of libssl installed on your system. The latest version is 1.1, but it looks like the pre-built version depends on the older 1.0. There should be a way to just require a 1.x version, but just in case anyone else comes across this issue, it probably is best to rebuild. You could also symlink the newer libssl.so version to match libssl.so.1.0.0, but it's not ideal.

ok thanks for the info ... what do you think for next release of vpkg, to be linked with that (newer) release of libssl ? Thanks for now. Bye

@smartiniOnGitHub Hi, sorry for the late response. Maybe @RiordanIX is right, I didn't investigate this issue yet and I'm not sure if I'll be able to produce a version that is compatible with 1.x versions of libssl so its best to just compile it by yourself.
