Currently, brew installs libcrypto.46.dylib andlibssl.48.dylib

However ponyup expects libssl.47.dylib and libcrypto.46.dylib. This lead to errors like

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/libressl/lib/libssl.47.dylib

@aDotInTheVoid which version of macOS are you using?

[SeanTAllen]

Also @aDotInTheVoid can you change this line in your ponyup-init.sh that you downloaded from "releases" to "nightlies" and let me know if you are good.

[aDotInTheVoid]

macOS Catilina: l10.15.4 (19E287)
libressl: stable 3.1.1 (bottled), HEAD [keg-only]

Unfortunately, nightly doesn't fix it

That's odd. I'm guessing that we need to do a brew update to get the latest package definitions. I'll set that up and ping you again in a couple days to test a nightly again.

Thanks for the information @aDotInTheVoid.

[SeanTAllen]

@aDotInTheVoid I got a little sidetracked. On Saturday Eastern US time, can you try the latest nightly and see if it works for you. It will be generated around midnight eastern time and will be ready anytime after that. I think will fix the issue as we should be linking against the latest libressl installed by homebrew at that point.

Thanks for your assistance!

[SeanTAllen]

@aDotInTheVoid scratch that. We have a chicken and the egg problem at the moment.

@Theodus I think we are going to have to install ponyc and corral "the hard way" on macOS in order to work around a dependency problem as we can't run ponyup to install corral with the updated libressl. I could get clever to get around that but I don't think that would help for long.

[SeanTAllen]

@Theodus to address this problem we need to make ponyup on macOS always install the most recent nightly rather than a release.

additionally, we need to tell people if they update libressl that they will need to reinstall the latest ponyup nightly IF brew installs the old ssl (I don't know if it does, that would be shitty, but, we'll find out).

[SeanTAllen]

@aDotInTheVoid can you try the latest nightly please?

[ergl]

@SeanTAllen had the same issue on Mojave 10.14.6, changing the default repository to "nightlies" fixed the issue for me.

[aDotInTheVoid]

Works for me with lates nightly too (checksum=6143c010be7dcad9336d1d50735ff07d36104759b7c85d1b8e49a444ef47f9fe)

Thanks for the fix
