Ubuntu 22.04 Installation problem

Support
1

Hi,
I tried to use latest Otii SW on Ubuntu 22.04
Mainly I struggled to do the login procedure…found the forum post regarding fixing libssl to get it working.

It gives an error during installation already stating it depends on libssl1.1
I can install libssl3 only.

otii : Depends: libssl1.1 (>= 1.1) but it is not installable
…
E: Unmet dependencies. Try ‘apt --fix-broken install’ with no packages (or specify a solution).
…
If I try to fix broken install, it will remove the whole package:
sudo apt --fix-broken install
…
The following packages will be REMOVED:
otii
…

Full log below.
Thx,
Markus

Hi,

Our software is dependent on a 3rd-party component that requires openssl 1.1. Until this is fixed by the vendor we recommend our customers to stay with Ubuntu 21.10 or an earlier release.

There is however a hack that has worked out for some of our customers. You need to manually install openssl 1.1 before installing Otii:

# wget http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
# sudo dpkg -i libssl1.1_1.1.0g-2ubuntu4_amd64.deb
# sudo dpkg -i otii_2.8.4.deb

Best Regards,
Joakim

Thanks joakim,
that worked for me.
Good not to have otii removed automatically after every Ubuntu SW update :slight_smile:

I’m experiencing this same issue on Ubuntu 23.04. V3 of the software works fine on this version of Ubuntu, but does not include the UART logging which V2 has.

@jpmeijers
I am happy to hear what UART logging features that you are missing in Otii 3 compared to Otii 2.

Best regards,
Björn
