Language Server: no usable version of the libssl was found

[PowerSnail]

I am receiving this weird error saying libssl not found. I just checked and found various versions of libssl.so on my computer. Is there any specific version that this language server requires?

Thanks.

I searched for and could not find any issue here mentioning libssl. If this is a duplicate issue, please allow me to apologize in advance.

Some related threads says is a HP problem, but i can't fix it yet

If you're running Tumbleweed then it's quite possible your version of libssl is simply too new for the language server to link against.

[pmunozroa]

I have fixed it, maybe was a problem from Anaconda Extension Pack, now I'm using a clean installation from Python 3.7

Thanks for letting us know.

[PowerSnail]

Is it possible if you could provide a linkable version of libssl?

Thanks.

[d3r3kk]

Oh I'm sorry, I closed this issue on a report from a different user, my apologies!

From here, https://en.opensuse.org/Features_15.0, I see that libssl is updated to latest (1.1.0) in your distro. I believe our language server would need to be aware of this version (or the underlying libs would) in order for it to work.

This is likely going to need an upstream update from our language server friends.

In the meantime, you can perhaps downgrade your libssl (probably not recommended).

Unfortunately there isn't much else we can do at the moment.

[PowerSnail]

No worries. Thanks for the answer.

It seems that libopenssl1_0_0 works. Thank you!
