#202837 — libcurl problem.

Greetings all;

One of the last updates to wheezy was libcurl, from security.debian.org, 
to libcurl.so.4.2.0 which was installed by symlinking it to 
libcurl.so.4, which is what the erroir.

Normally when you folks do that, the symlink says it is 100% compatible 
with the older version.

But everything on my system that needs libcurl.so.4 is yelling about it 
can't be found.

How to fix this if possible?

Thank you all.

Cheers, Gene Heskett

What is the output of this command:

apt-cache policy $(dpkg -l |grep libcurl | awk '{print $2}')

The version you have installed first appeared 6 months ago:

http://snapshot.debian.org/package/curl/7.26.0-1%2Bwheezy25%2Bdeb7u1/

Here is the related Debian LTS Advisory:

https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2018/05/msg00010.html

Did you just recently update curl?

About the first of october, it came from security.debian.org IIRC, but 
let me see if I can find it in Synaptics history to be exact & sure of 
the date . Damn, clear back in May 17 2018, I see this:

curl (7.26.0-1+wheezy25) to 7.26.0-1+wheezy25+deb7u1
libcurl3 (7.26.0-1+wheezy25) to 7.26.0-1+wheezy25+deb7u1
libcurl3-gnutls (7.26.0-1+wheezy25) to 7.26.0-1+wheezy25+deb7u1
libcurl4-gnutls-dev (7.26.0-1+wheezy25) to 7.26.0-1+wheezy25+deb7u1

I knew I'd been looking at the error, but I didn't think it was THAT far 
back up the log.  But an app I hadn't used in a coupler years, refused 
to go get the docs for a new version, which made me back it up to the 
previous version I was familiar with, also refused, I thought I'd dig a 
little deeper.

Abd the fix is?

Knowing which package was installed would be useful. It should be in
you logs.

Can you try to launch the offending application from the terminal and
post the complete error output?

Ton't take long, its name is DriveWire, writtem in java. It sets up a 
very high baud rate serial connection to an old TRS-80 Color Computer3 
over a usb2 to a 7 port usb hub in the basement, which has a custom 
built adapter cable plugged into the coco's bit banger port, giving 
the coco 32 additional channels of i/o that can be used as virtual 
disk drives, virtual terminal screens into the coco from a pc's screen.
a midi player, and access in text modes, to any printer attached to 
the pc.  All at speeds of about half that of a floppy controller.

I fired it up, and sent it to show me the documentation from the 
drivewire wiki pages.  And this is the trace:

======================

/usr/bin/x-www-browser: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or 
directory
===========================
At that point I exited the app. The NineServer port message has been 
there for years, thru at least a dozen new versions and has never 
been a problem. At that point it had not yet drawn its gui, taking 
another 3 or 4 secs to complete that.  At that point I opened the help
pulldown and ask to see the docs from te wiki.

And thats is the complete trace, showing the libcurl.so.4 as not being loadable.

But its there:

Me not java expert except for drinking it. :-)

Doing a new ldconfig makes no difference.

OK.  The problem is not your application, directly, but rather the
system browser.  What is the output of these two commands?

ls -l /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser

ldd /etc/alternatives/x-www-browser

Opera? I got tired of its inability to read a news site, and nuked it 
years ago

Trying to run opera from the cli returns exactly the same libcurl.so.4 
error.

Must be time to update this thing... Grrrrr!

Just FAWC (for anyone who cares :]) that's a UUOG (useless
use of grep), because regular expression support is fundamental
to the design of awk.

apt-cache policy $(dpkg -l | awk '/libcurl/ {print $2}')

would be a nicer way to do that, FAWC.

I suppose I should know that.  For the longest time I always did 'grep |
cut' but kept encountering instances where I needed something a bit more
flexible than cut.  I found awk to my liking but never properly learned
it, just always using it as a fancy cut replacement.

Thanks for the pointer.

You are welcome. I learn from your posts too.

No, it wasn't from security.debian.org.

Look at what you had before and what you have now.
