mv /opt/google/earth/pro/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /opt/google/earth/pro/libcrypto.so.1.0.0.google mv /opt/google/earth/pro/libssl.so.1.0.0 /opt/google/earth/pro/libssl.so.1.0.0.google
- Set links to the system libraries. Attention: Check path on your system.
ln -s /usr/lib64/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /opt/google/earth/pro/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 ln -s /usr/lib64/libssl.so.1.0.0 /opt/google/earth/pro/libssl.so.1.0.0
