Hello,
To run XnView, here is what it is recommended:
you need to remove lib/libcrypto* from package https://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?p=165437#p165437
What do you think ? libcrypto* belong to openssl-libs
When I try to remove the package, I get Problem: The operation would result in removing the following protected packages: sudo (try to add '--skip-broken' to skip uninstallable packages)
You should absolutely not try to delete the OS's libcrypto, it will render your system unusable. Just look at the output of
rpm -q --whatrequires 'libcrypto.so.1.1()(64bit)'
You think you can survive without any of those packages? It is a library used by systemd, dnf, rpm, coreutils, python, etc. etc.
I think that thread is telling you to remove the bundled libcrypto.so.* inside the tarball. Perhaps that forum would be a better place to ask questions rather than this list?
