Sawmill Log File Analyser on Ubuntu

Quick post. Today I was trying to get SawMill log file analyser working on Ubuntu and it kept failing to load due to missing library, error:

mac [ ~/Tools/sawmill ]$ ls
Extras  LICENSE  LogAnalysisInfo  README  sawmill
mac [ ~/Tools/sawmill ]$ ./sawmill
./sawmill: error while loading shared libraries: libcrypto.so.0.9.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

So I looked at the dependencies the script needed:

mac [ ~/Tools/sawmill ]$ ldd ./sawmill
linux-vdso.so.1 =>  (0x00007fffc07ff000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libdl.so.2 (0x00007f515b72a000)
libnsl.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libnsl.so.1 (0x00007f515b510000)
libresolv.so.2 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libresolv.so.2 (0x00007f515b2f3000)
libz.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libz.so.1 (0x00007f515b0dc000)
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 => not found
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpthread.so.0 (0x00007f515aebe000)
libssl.so.0.9.8 => not found
libstdc++.so.6 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6 (0x00007f515abbe000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.so.6 (0x00007f515a8c1000)
libgcc_s.so.1 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 (0x00007f515a6ab000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6 (0x00007f515a2ec000)
/lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007f515b94a000)

There it is, packages libssl and libcrypto. Now I would have thought libssl-dev would have covered these, but no:

mac [ ~/Tools/sawmill ]$ sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

libssl-dev is already the newest version.

A little Google search and the solution was:

sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
