Can't install tmux. Error: dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib

Question

I tried installing tmux by doing the steps specified here. I have tried all the suggested steps, but the terminal still gave me this error:

dyld: Library not loaded: /usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/libcrypto.1.0.0.dylib
Referenced from: /usr/local/opt/libevent/lib/libevent-2.1.6.dylib
Reason: image not found
Trace/BPT trap: 5

Answer 1

Reinstalling openssl did not work for me, but

brew upgrade tmux

got me to version 3.0a and got rid of the error.

Answer 2

These steps are worked for me.

brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies openssl
brew install openssl

Answer 3

Looks like you don't have openssl lib. Try to install with brew install openssl

Answer 4

I tried the answer by @Kaifei, but ran into problems with openssh. At the end, I also had to do:

brew upgrade openssh

to resolve the issue. This blog talks about this solution.
