Problems starting Camotics in Linux Mint 21

[--]

Hi - I've used Camotics previously in versions of Linux Mint up to 20.3

I recently did a fresh install of Linux Mint 21, and re-installed Camotics.

As someone else here posted, the installation appeared to go OK, but Camotics will not launch.

I installed libqt5websockets5 and libqt5websockets-dev, and also tried to install libV8-dev, but got this response:

Note, selecting 'libnode-dev' instead of 'libv8-dev'
The following additional packages will be installed:
  libnode72 libssl-dev libuv1-dev
Suggested packages:
  libssl-doc
The following NEW packages will be installed
  libnode-dev libnode72 libssl-dev libuv1-dev

If I try to start Camotics from the terminal, I get the following:

camotics: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any suggestions would be welcome - I'm getting lost!

You need libssl1.1 installed.

OK - That fixed it - thanks, Joseph.

Hi, Joseph,

It would perhaps be a help if you could post a list of possible dependencies that need to be installed - I have found references at various places,

and especially when there is a change in the required file, as I noted in my first post on this thread - I wasted a lot of time trying to install libv8-dev, which had changed to libnode-dev, not realising I also needed libssl1.1 - even though my terminal said I was missing  libssl.so.1.1 - apart from that - a useful tool.
