@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.

@alanc@fosstodon.org Thanks. I think the previous BE will be the only option. I didn't intend to do a drop-in replacement. I think instead of setting mediators (apparently incorrectly, such that it immediately switched to 3) I should have removed the links that the Userland openssl3 was trying to make for /usr/lib/libcrypto.so that conflicted with the openssl-1.x. Yeah, I've borked the pkg system. Wish Oracle would release Userland compiled packages to those of us with personal machines.
