Description

After installing 5.4.0 , I get on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS the error :
/opt/simplex/smp-server: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72133316/libssl-so-1-1-cannot-open-shared-object-file-no-such-file-or-directory there is a solution but not recommended.

Is there a way to avoid this problem?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with /opt/simplex/smp-server version 5.4.0 on Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS and inspect which shared libraries it requires. Trace how the server is built or packaged, then verify that the installed server starts without requiring libcrypto.so.1.1.
