How do I install the libssl1.0.0 package?

Question

I am working on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ board with Raspbian GNU/Linux 9.9 (stretch) I am trying to install libssl1.0.0 packages using the following commands:

sudo apt-get update 
sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0

But I'm getting the following error:

root@raspberrypi:/home/pi# sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
Package libssl1.0.0 is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source
E: Package 'libssl1.0.0' has no installation candidate

Later on I've even installed:

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

But it's still not able to resolve the dependencies. How can I install libssl1.0.0?

Answer 1

Your installation says

Package libssl1.0.0 is not available ...

So just look what's available with

rpi ~$ apt list libssl*
Listing... Done
libssl-dev/oldstable 1.1.0k-1~deb9u1 armhf
libssl-doc/oldstable 1.1.0k-1~deb9u1 all
libssl-ocaml/oldstable 0.5.2-2 armhf
libssl-ocaml-dev/oldstable 0.5.2-2 armhf
libssl1.0-dev/oldstable 1.0.2s-1~deb9u1 armhf
libssl1.0.2/oldstable,now 1.0.2s-1~deb9u1 armhf
libssl1.1/oldstable,now 1.1.0k-1~deb9u1 armhf [installed]

Try to use libssl1.0.2 instead of libssl1.0.0.

Answer 2

1. sudo nano /etc/apt/sources.list
2. add deb http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu bionic-security main
3. sudo apt update && apt-cache policy libssl1.0-dev
4. sudo apt-get install libssl1.0-dev

Answer 3

I fixed with the steps below:

1. Download libssl1.0.0 from https://packages.debian.org/jessie/armhf/libssl1.0.0/download (I made this with WinScp tools, with a ssh connection with a Windows10 host).
2. In the folder containing this package run: dpkg -i libssl1.0.0_1.0.1t-1+deb8u12_armhf.deb
3. Finally run: dpkg -i zipgateway-2.81.03-Linux-armhf.deb

For me it works

Answer 4

Using deb files written for Jessie can be problematic with mismatched dependencies, but if libssl-1.0.0 is the only missing one it has complained about so far, there's hope.

Here is a recipe to work around this not-too-uncommon error at your own risk:

ar xv zipgateway-2.81.03-Linux-armhf.deb

mkdir -p tmp
cd tmp
tar xvf ../control.tar.*
sed -i 's/libssl1.0.0/libssl1.1/' control
tar cJf ../control.tar.xz *
cd ..

ar cr zipgateway-2.81.03-Linux-armhf-patched.deb \
  debian-binary control.tar.xz data.tar.*
sudo apt install ./zipgateway-2.81.03-Linux-armhf-patched.deb

That may successfully install the package or may identify other missing dependencies to work through. Once you get around to running the program it's unlikely that it will depend on any OpenSSL 1.0.0-specific bugs at runtime, but there may be other incompatibilities taking a binary from Jessie to Stretch.

All the more reason you should put as much information as possible in your question description with regards to this particular zipgateway Jessie package.

~:$ sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
~:$ sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:rael-gc/rvm
~:$ sudo apt-get update
~:$ sudo apt-get install rvm
~:$ sudo apt install libssl1.0-dev

Answer 6

For me, this works:

wget http://security.debian.org/debian-security/pool/updates/main/o/openssl1.0/libssl1.0.2_1.0.2u-1~deb9u7_armhf.deb

sudo dpkg -i libssl1.0.2_1.0.2u-1~deb9u7_armhf.deb
