While on the topic of Sylpheed...


Artix Linux , Kernel=6.0.7-artix1-1 on x86_64,
DM=Unknown, DE=KDE, ST=x11,grub2, GPT, BIOS-boot

Sylpheed WAS working fine until something knocked it out, now I cannot delete it, or install it, or launch it.
NB. I just updated with pacman -Sy & pacman -Su which may or may not be a factor
 
# pacman -Qe > mypaxfile.txt
gets to reveal sylpheed 3.7.0-6 is there

doing a search with KFind shows it's there

Somehow the missing libcrypto.so.1.1 exists only in a completely unrelated and remote
TorBrowser folder

Code: [Select]
# pacman -S libcrypto
error: could not register 'system' database (database already registered)
error: could not register 'world' database (database already registered)
error: could not register 'galaxy' database (database already registered)
error: target not found: libcrypto

WHERE is sylpheed looking for libcrypto?  Maybe I could just link the TOR edition of it to there?

TIA


-- Every day of the week I boot a different (Linux) OS, my email client is Sylpheed and it has a folder link in every one of these systems pointing to a single real folder on a remote data drive. I nominate Sylpheed for the Nobel prize of Compuke-Conviviality and expect every one of my apps to behave this way or soon be gone from my computer.

Who, has loved us more?

That libcrypto error is from the recent move to openssl 3, try installing openssl-1.1

Thank you, that did the job. I presume that openssl was installed already, so I'm a little confused.
The last update didn't bring it up to 1.1?
