Is there a way to get an OpenSSL 1.0.x package in Ubuntu 11.04, without building from source ?
apt-get update/upgrade only brings one to 0.9.8g
There's no officially supported way to get it in natty. You might be able to find someone somewhere who's packaged it up, but if you want to use trusted sources you're not going to find it on a version lower than 11.10, and if you want the latest version of openssl you're going to want to go to 12.04

I need a newer version of binutils on Amazon Linux to compile a piece of needed software. This is due to a bug in version 2.29 which is the latest available in their repo. What would be the best way to add another repo, and will this mess up future uses of the yum command as I add and remove non-approved repos? Can I just add in a repo from a similar flavor like CentOS? Does Amazon have a less "Safe" version that has up to date software in it?
For me the safest way to get newer version on your VM is to compile it and install it in different place like /opt/binutils or /usr/local/binutils and use absolute paths for utils.
I have a CentOS 7 installation running httpd-2.4.35 and openssl-1.0.2k, but due to vulnerability findings, I need to update OpenSSL to at lease 1.0.2s, preferably u. Unfortunately, I cannot find RPM for these packages, which would make it a lot simpler.
I have tried to upgrade the using the tarball provided by OpenSSL but, although the installation works, httpd still uses Openssl-1.0.2k. It seems that I am not doing all the actions that the RPM installation is doing. Does anyone know if I can find this newer OpenSSL1.0.2 RPM packages somewhere or how to force httpd (installed via RPM) to use another version of OpenSSL?
Thanks!
If you are using OpenSSL 1.0.2k from the RPM package provided by CentOS 7, you are going to receive OpenSSL security updates via yum update until June 2024. Red Hat with RHEL 7, upstream of CentOS 7, is backporting security fixes. This means that there is no rebase to a new version such as 1.0.2s, but 1.0.2k will get a patch added resolving the security flaw. A recently active Red Hat community discussion is covering almost the same topic and referring to the same explanation.
Unfortunately you are not referring to a specific security flaw to provide a specific example. If you would like to know which RPM package fixes CVE-2020-1971, you can visit https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2020-1971 and figure out there, that errata RHSA-2020:5566 contains the fix, thus RPM package "openssl-1.0.2k-21.el7_9". And if you are e.g. on "openssl-1.0.2k-19.el7" (which can be figured out using e.g. rpm -q openssl), this indeed means you should apply updates using yum update.
When I was going to install some package on my NAS via ipkg I found there are more than one versions such as:
root#Nas:/opt/etc/init.d# ipkg list | grep openssl
openssl - 0.9.8v-2 - Openssl provides the ssl implementation in libraries libcrypto and libssl, and is needed by many other applications and librari
openssl - 0.9.7m-6 - Openssl provides the ssl implementation in libraries libcrypto and libssl, and is needed by many other applications and librari
Due some dependency issue I need the version 0.9.7. However, if I just type ipkg install openssl it will always install the later, aka the 0.9.8, one.
Does anybody know how to specify the version to install?
This functionality was introduced in opkg 0.3.2, taken from the commit message:
If several versions of a package are available in a repo, opkg defaults
to the latest one. To force opkg to use a different version, the syntax
= is used. For example, in a repo that has
version 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0 of 'a', the following command will install
version 1.0:
opkg install a=1.0
The syntax is the same used by apt-get.
Here's the issue and 0.3.2's release notes
I attempted to update my version of SVN from 1.7 to 1.8 as per this guide:
http://snippets.khromov.se/subversion-1-8-centos-6/
All seemed to install fine, however now I have an issue when I try to restart Apache:
/usr/sbin/httpd: symbol lookup error: /usr/sbin/httpd: undefined symbol: apr_crypto_init
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Which packages need to be updated?
I had same issue after installing some perl modules.
I did the following to resolve it:
yum remove vulture-common-3.2-185.1.x86_64
cd /usr/lib
ln -sf libaprutil-1.so.0.2.9 libaprutil-1.so.0
ln -sf libapr-1.so.0.2.9 libapr-1.so.0
apr_crypto_init is new with APR-Util 1.4.x. CentOS 6 should already have APR-Util 1.4.x. So either you're not using CentOS 6 which those instructions are made for or you're not using the apr-util/httpd version that comes with CentOS 6.
If you're not using CentOS 6 then I suggest you go get a version built for your distribution from WANdisco's download site (the script that the site you linked to actually is from WANdisco).
If you're using your own httpd version you'll either have to switch or you'll have to build your own copy of Subversion.
I have had similar experiences with other applications using this library and Centos 6.x. I have tracked most of the problems down to using the 'minimum install' version of the OS. From what I have been able to determine, the minimum or light install versions of Centos have a tendency to have older versions of the binaries. For example, my version of APR-Utils are 1.3x even though I am using version 6.6.
This is supposedly done for better stability and backward compatibility from what I can find but it causes some headaches if you aren't aware. You may need to use a more 'complete' version of the OS in order for this library to be the latest version, provided you are starting from scratch.
I tried to install mono and monodevelop on centOS 6.3.
After many hours I was able to install mono but failed with monodevelop.
I'm really astonished how difficult and time consuming it is, to get a recent mono/monodevelop version on linux installed.
Is there nobody willing to write and maintain an install/compile tutorial to get the most recent mono/monodevelop/monodata/ASP.NET MVC/... version on the major linux distributions (Centos, Ubuntu, Suse, Debian) installed?
I think many people developing on Windows (with limited linux knowledge) would like to start using mono, if the boarding hurdle would be somehow lower.
It may be the most important to make Mono more used and more visible.
Please, write a tested tutorial (script) for compiling mono/monodevelop.
Thank you!
I have created a project on Open Build Service, which produces builds of the latest MonoDevelop 4.0.10 for Debian, Ubuntu, CentOS, and Fedora.
see https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/home:tpokorra:mono
For installation instructions with apt-get or yum, see:
http://software.opensuse.org/download/package?project=home:tpokorra:mono&package=monodevelop-opt
I hope this will increase the usage of MonoDevelop on Linux Desktop environments.
Monodevelop 4.
If you use any *buntu. Check this.
"You can open up the terminal and install it via the following:
1. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:keks9n/monodevelop-latest
2. sudo apt-get update
3. sudo apt-get install monodevelop-latest"

Xamarin should be doing a better job at publishing the linux packages in a one-click manner. I don't care what linux distro (SuSE, RHEL, CentOS, Ubuntu etc) - just pick any one as the supported one and publish for it. It seemed that it used to be SuSE but even that has old packages as seen within Zypper/YaST.
Update Mono framework
Having said that, to update the Mono framework itself, without letting go of the package managers try this. This will work as long as the project dutifully publishes the RPMs. You don't want to build from source since it's a more fickle process and the setup distracts from your real objective (i.e. develop).
Obviously, please replace the URL below to what will be latest by the time you're reading this.
mkdir mono-rpms
cd mono-rpms
wget --reject "index.html*" -nd -r -e robots=off --no-parent http://download.mono-project.com/archive/3.2.3/linux/x64/
sudo zypper install *rpm
Update MonoDevelop (the IDE)
Timotheus Pokorra's answer indicates he's filling in some of the usability void left by Xamarin (Thanks Timotheus!!). You can install MonoDevelop via
http://software.opensuse.org/download/package?project=home:tpokorra:mono&package=monodevelop-opt
Note that on SuSE I get the error
Problem: nothing provides liberation-mono-fonts needed by mono-libgdiplus-opt-3.0.12-7.1.x86_64
Solution 1: do not install monodevelop-opt-4.0.12-5.2.x86_64
Solution 2: break mono-libgdiplus-opt-3.0.12-7.1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies
I (very reluctantly) selected to break the dependency. Note that I already had liberation-fonts (via sudo zypper install liberation-fonts). I don't know if its the same/different as liberation-mono-fonts. Anyway, hope Timotheus fixes it when he has a moment.
I'm not sure if you've already seen this, but this may help:
http://www.mono-project.com/Parallel_Mono_Environments
The most common problem that new developers have when coming to Linux from systems like Windows is not properly setting up their environment variables and so when they do the standard ./configure && make && make install routine, when it involves a number of source packages (like Mono does), any package that depends on the core package won't pick up the correct location for that base package.
Your question really doesn't explain what parts you found confusing or difficult so it's hard to address those issues.
For people unfamiliar with setting up Linux systems, it may be easier if you just go with a system like Ubuntu which has fairly recent pre-built packages (although not the latest - I don't think any Linux system keeps up with Mono releases) rather than wrestling with the learning curve of how to build everything yourself.
It is confirmed that in the near future Xamarin will support Linux and provide binaries (mono and mainline applications) for Debian and Centos derivatives, and their are already packages for Debian and Centos derivatives for technical preview. So cheers and no more pain of compiling and even parallel mono installaions.It can not get more easy than this. Check here
