@alanc Might I ask a favor? Is there a way to recover from having installed openssl-3 on a personal Solaris 11.4 system which seems to have broken everything relying on openssl 1.0.x -- including "sudo" and the "pkg" system? I haven't been able to find any discussion in the regular places.

    @nhbriggs@mastodon.social @alanc@fosstodon.org can you LD_LIBRARY_PATH= to point to a copy of the OpenSSl1.1.x libraries? We had to do that when we installed OpenSSL 3.4.0 on Solaris 10 1/13

    @nhbriggs@mastodon.social installing OpenSSL 3 alongside OpenSSL 1 shouldn't have broken anything - that's the default state of Solaris 11.4.42 through 11.4.80 while we worked through converting all the software that used OpenSSL 1 to use 3 instead. But drop-in replacement can't work as they're not compatible (hence the change of major version number) - if you've done something like that, booting from a previous BE is probably your best choice, since the pkg system depends on OpenSSL.
