Plugin on Ubuntu 24.04

[p4tt4nz]

Tried to run the linux plugin on Ubuntu 24.04. Unfortunate its compiled on 20.04 so libcrypto and libssl is to old (1.1). 24.04 runs v3. I tried to just softlink but i got: version `OPENSSL_1_1_0'. Is it possible to get newer versions of the plugin that supports more up to date libs?

Hit same problem in Devuan 5.0 (identical to debian 12)

Maybe you could install an older version of libssl alongside the newer one. This worked for me.

wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb

I also have the problem on ubuntu 24.04 LTS but just installing the old lib makes me nervous ...
From -> https://gist.github.com/joulgs/c8a85bb462f48ffc2044dd878ecaa786
"While it's always possible to install libssl1.1 if you needed it, note that OpenSSL 1.1 is no longer being maintained by OpenSSL dev. and can contain unfixed security vulnerability. If you're a dev, please consider migrating your program to OpenSSL 3. "

The "link" solution seems to be best, but where does the plugin searches the lib? I have several old libs on my machine (not in the main path) to which I could link to. But where should I place the link?

I was able to work around this using these steps:

1. Downloading libssl1.1 from the previously mentioned gist.

cd ~/Downloads
wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb

2. Extracting the contents of the .deb file using the technique in this Stack Overflow post.

cd ~/Downloads
mkdir ~/libssl1.1
dpkg-deb -x libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb ~/libssl1.1

3. Renaming crashpad_handler to crashpad_handler.wrapped.

sudo mv /usr/local/share/audiogridder/crashpad_handler /usr/local/share/audiogridder/crashpad_handler.wrapped

4. Creating a new wrapper script in place of the original crashpad_handler.

 sudo nano /usr/local/share/audiogridder/crashpad_handler

5. Updating the script to set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH for loading the real handler, now named: crashpad_handler.wrapped. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH should point to wherever you stored the libcrypto.so.1.1 and libssl.so.1.1 that were extracted from the .deb.

#!/bin/bash
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=~/libssl1.1/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
/usr/local/share/audiogridder/crashpad_handler.wrapped "$@"

6. After that, all that was needed was to make the crashpad_handler wrapper script executable:

sudo chmod +x /usr/local/share/audiogridder/crashpad_handler

This method allows the crashpad_handler to use the old libssl without affecting any of the rest of the system.

This is the best way to do without security scare.
I got it working, but even my "windows server" is too slow (I tried to work with Native Instruments plugins) or it is not able to work with Harris Mixbus 8**.
On my system the bash script does not work as supposed. I have to send the commands on the CLI as root by hand.
Maybe it's me...

Thank You for this solution.
