While running ovito, I get the message

symbol lookup error: /lib64/libk5crypto.so.3: undefined symbol: EVP_KDF_ctrl, version OPENSSL_1_1_1b

I have OPENSSL version 1.1.1g installed on Fedora 32

It looks like similar problems have been reported for other software on Fedora 32:

I am looking for a solution...

It may help to remove the copy of libcrypto shipping with OVITO and replace it with the system's version of that library. But I couldn't verify that so far, because I do not have a Fedora 32 installation at hand. So, could you please try the following?

cd ovito-pro-3.2.1-x86_64
rm lib/ovito/libcrypto.so.1.1
ln -s /lib64/libcrypto.so.1.1 lib/ovito/libcrypto.so.1.1

Please check if the file /lib64/libcrypto.so.1.1 actually exists on your system. It may have a different name. Thank you.

Thanks a lot, it worked. In fact, libcrypto.so.1.1 is again a link to libcrypto.so.1.1g in /lib64/
