Feisty ipscromp

I needed to get ipscromp working on Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty Fawn) recently and ran into a familiar problem. ipscromp errors out with:

ipscromp: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


To fix this add a symbolic link:

$ ln -s /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.7 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.4


Apparently there is not a debian package for the older version in the Ubuntu 'verse but the newer version is happily backwards compatible.

You will need to install libssl0.9.7 if it is not already installed.
