Summary:                    pkg-get upgrade broke apache2 -- downloaded
libssl.so.0.9.8.20080930141858.29450 etc but did not symlink libcrypto.so.0.9.8
Description: 
Yesterday I did a pkg-get upgrade on two servers, and in both cases I ended
up with a broken Apache2 instance.  Both servers broke in exactly the same
way. After the upgrade the start of Apache2 failed with the error

ld.so.1: httpd: fatal: libssl.so.0.9.8: open failed: No such file or
directory

and on investigation I discovered that the files 

/opt/csw/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8.20080930141858.29450 
/opt/csw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8.20080930141858.29450

existed but there were no symbolic links 

/opt/csw/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8
/opt/csw/lib/libcrypto.so.0.9.8

so I manually resolved this situation and Apache2 was then able to start.

I don't know where the fault lies but I suggest this might be worth
looking into because I assume other people will run into the same problem.

dang, got something wrong in the title of this issue!

libssl.so.0.9.8.20080930141858.29450 etc but did not symlink
libcrypto.so.0.9.8 

should be:

libssl.so.0.9.8.20080930141858.29450 etc but did not symlink
libssl.so.0.9.8 

this issue did involve two files and two symlinks, but, I should have at
least got the correspondence right in the title!

Please see 

http://wiki.joyent.com/accelerators:kb:blastwave 

for a posting about this issue from earlier this year.  This posting was
helpful to me in resolving the problem... and I guess from the contents of
this posting I probably shouldn't have categorized this as an Apache2
issue, because it apparently is effecting other packages also.
