Resolving missing link to libcrypto openssl on OSX from: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/38670295/brew-refusing-to-link-openssl

brew update

brew install openssl

ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/

ln -s /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libssl.1.0.0.dylib /usr/local/lib/

this command solve my problem on github CI job:
cp /usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/

Me tooo thanks :)

@vcjuliocesar Did you try downgrading your openSSL as I mentioned in the comment before:

brew uninstall openssl 
brew uninstall openssl
brew install https://github.com/tebelorg/Tump/releases/download/v1.0.0/openssl.rb

There are 2 uninstall commands to make sure any OpenSSL v1.1 is removed, and any dead v1.0 is removed, before installing v1.0.

This is working for me!

ANDDDDD... after accidentally upgraded openssl (and brew), this is no longer working for me. somehow.

But I find this working (no need to do the last step - brew switch... )

Great work - but when I try the app (after giving it permission etc) - I get the following error popup:

Unable to load OpenSSL library files: libssl.1.1.dylib and libcrypto.1.1.dylib

If you are using a conda env, simply use

conda install -c bioconda samtools openssl=1.0

thanks

For compilers to find openssl@1.1 you may need to set:
  export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib"
  export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/include"

when you perform this export commands in the terminal above issue got resolved for me.

is there a way to make this work on M1 Macs with BigSur?

Yes please :(

me too! Although I'm using an Intel core desktop with BigSur. I'm hesitant to downgrade.

In M1 chip computers, the installations are placed in /opt/homebrew/opt instead of /usr/local/opt.
So we should use the following:

export LDFLAGS="-L/opt/homebrew/opt/curl/lib -L/opt/homebrew/opt/openssl/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/opt/curl/include -I/user/local/opt/openssl/include"

👍

thanks, it work for me

this command solve my problem on github CI job: cp /usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1/lib/pkgconfig/*.pc /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/

On M1 seems like I can make to with $ ln -s /opt/homebrew/opt/openssl\@1.1/lib/pkgconfig/libcrypto.pc /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/libcrypto.pc

@elfgoh thanks, this worked for me!

Thank you very much 🙏

for what it's worth, I got through a compile (v2.48) with:

./configure LDFLAGS=-L/opt/homebrew/lib/ CFLAGS="-I/opt/homebrew/include"

on my M1 mac. Zero symlinks or copying of files!

In case anyone here is trying this on macOS with brew and the toolmise or `asdf , this is what worked for me:

brew install gcc readline zlib curl openssl@1.1 ossp-uuid icu4c pkg-config
PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$(brew --prefix)/lib/pkgconfig:$(brew --prefix icu4c)/lib/pkgconfig" \
LDFLAGS="-L$(brew --prefix)/lib" \
CPPFLAGS="-I$(brew --prefix)/include" \
mise use postgres@17 --verbose
