marketmaker issue with libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3' in Manjaro/Arch Distros

I’m no expert but after chatting with others in support we decided best to sumbit an issue here. BarterDex stops at “Pleas wait…” Apparently because marketmaker never starts Running.

Running marketmaker alone gives this

./marketmaker: /usr/lib/libcurl.so.4: version `CURL_OPENSSL_3’ not found (required by ./marketmaker)

Whether SSL3 is needed or not for marketmaker it does not start because of this version check.

Arch and Manjaro distros no longer include SSL3 as of this commit here: https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/commit/trunk?h=packages/openssl&id=4b82ed4285c7cb76caf6d75a015c5a7542c625d1

It’s because SSL3 on the way out https://www.edgehosting.com/blog/2016/01/alternatives-for-tlsv1-and-sslv3-encryption/

So no surprise, with Arch/Manjaro being on the bleeding edge of things… (as some claim) has removed any potential dependency on SSL3

But apparently something in marketmaker’s version checks it wants to see some SSL3 love but finds none and will never unless you do something like this (recompiling SSL3 in) which seems useless other than passing a version check.

I’m not sure what category this goes, so admin, please move this issue where if it belongs.

Cheers 😃
