Peter,

There is no Crypt::OpenSSL module. There are modules such as Crypt::OpenSSL::EDSCA, Crypt::OpenSSL::AES, and others. This would explain seeing .../Crypt/OpenSSL/... paths in Perl's @INC.

Hi, Bruce, thanks for the clarification. This is an area of Perl where I have very little experience.
I believe John may have meant to have you install Crypt::SSLeay. Another module you may want to update is LWP::Protocol::https.

On my Ubuntu 22.04 desktop the versions of those modules are currently:

LWP::Protocol::https    6.10

Net::SSLeay    1.92

Crypt::SSLeay    0.73_06

I had:

Net::SSLeay 1.96
LWP::Protocol::https 6.07

And I don't have Crypt::SSLeay installed. doing a find over all of @INC only turns up Net/SSLeay directories, and no Crypt/SSLeay directories.

I updated LWP::Protocol::https (now 6.15), and that didn't help, either with a bare Perl test or with Gnucash.

I tried installing Crypt::SSLeay, but it failed:

   % sudo cpan Crypt::SSLeay

   No 'Makefile' created  NANIS/Crypt-SSLeay-0.72.tar.gz
      /usr/bin/perl Makefile.PL -- NOT OK

It looks like I'm missing some libraries, but I have no idea how to get them or even where they would be expected to be found.

Cheers, and thanks for your help,
Peter
