Hi,
I've been successfully using picasa on FC10 for a while now. Last week
I upgraded to FC11 and though picasa works fine, i.e., it starts,
finds new photos, etc., I'm having an issue uploading to a web album.
I was able to this previously, but now I keep getting an error when I
try uploading.
It seems to fail on authentication. I went online and was able to sign
into the web-album using my browser. I do get the following error when
I try to sign into the web album using Picasa-for-linux:
<error-details>
HttpOpenRequest failed(12157) - https://www.google.com/accounts/ClientAuth
[13]
</error-details>
I'd appreciate any help with this. Thanks for listening...
Cheers
Savio

The version of libssl in Fedora 11 is incompatible with Picasa.
I fixed this by installing the files from the F10 version. It's a bit
complicated, because to make sure your system ends up in a consistent state,
you need to (a) install the old version in parallel with the new one, (b)
remove the old version from the RPM database without removing its files, and
then (c) reinstall the new version to ensure that all of its files are
installed properly. Here are the commands you should use to accomplish all
this (as root, and assuming that you're on a 32-bit x86 system):
rpm -i --oldpackage --force
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/updates/10/i386/openssl-0.9.8g-14.fc10.i386
.rpm
rpm -e --justdb --noscripts --notriggers openssl-0.9.8g-14.fc10
rpm -U --force
http://mirrors.kernel.org/fedora/updates/11/i386/openssl-0.9.8k-5.fc11.i586.
rpm
Exit from picasa before you do all this, and then when you restart it
afterwards you should be able to connect to Picasaweb and the other sites
that picasa connects to via https.

Sorry, I don't have an x64 system, so I'm not in a position to figure
out exactly what commands you can use to fix this issue on such a
system, although I imagine they will look very similar to the commands I
outlined below. In fact, if picasa is a 32-bit application (I don't
know whether it is, but it's certainly possible), then the commands
below might work without modification, since a 32-bit application would
require the 32-bit SSL libraries even on a 64-bit system.
