Package Control Not Working 10/17

#1

Hello, I’ve installed Package Control but it doesn’t show in the Command Palette. I checked and Package Control isn’t on my ignore list. I confirmed that Package Control.sublime-package is in my Installed Packages. I’m using a Mac on macOS version 12.6. There’s an error in my console that I think is causing the issue. Any idea how to fix?

Package Control requires OpenSSL 1.1 while latest OS releases only ship OpenSSL 3.0 by default.

The error message however points to found libcrypto.dylib to be a 32bit binary, while 64bit is needed. Wrong architecture so to say.

I wasn’t aware of macOS still supporting 32bit (x86) binaries.

Some hints about installing required openssl library are discussed at

Thank you for your reply. I tried this command from the thread you linked:

brew install openssl@1.1 && ln -sf $(set – brew --cellar openssl@1.1/1.1.1? && echo “$1”)/lib/libcrypto.dylib /usr/local/lib/

But I still got the error. In the thread you linked it linked another thread here.

From that thread I got and used the command:

file /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.dylib

It returned it was 64-bit (x86_64), but when I used

file /Users/claywhipp/lib/libcrypto.dylib

It said 32-bit (i386)

So I (perhaps foolishly) ran the command:

cp -f /usr/local/lib/libcrypto.dylib /Users/claywhipp/lib/libcrypto.dylib

but then when I opened Sublime it said “libcrypto.dylib cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified” so I was like uh oh and deleted it.

Somehow it now works, but when I run either of the file commands above to look for libcrypto.dylib I get

/usr/local/lib/libcrypto.dylib: cannot open `/usr/local/lib/libcrypto.dylib’ (No such file or directory)

So I’m worried I deleted something important. Even after reinstalling openssl with

brew reinstall openssl@1.1

libcrypto.dylib is still missing. Is that a problem?
