While using the AppImage bundle from https://download.kde.org/stable/digikam/digikam-5.9.0-01-x86-64.appimage, I was unable to upload to Flickr due to SSL errors. There would be a bunch of "cannot resolve" errors such as: qt.network.ssl: QSslSocket: cannot resolve CRYPTO_num_locks Followed by "Incompatible version of OpenSSL" Some digging produced https://github.com/Subsurface-divelog/subsurface/issues/779#issuecomment-342206044, which contained this hint: "Something causes libcrypto.so.1.0.1e to be searched, and since we do not bundle this version inside the AppImage, the libcrypto from the base system gets loaded instead of the bundled version, which leads to an OpenSSL version mismatch." A workaround for this bug, which successfullly caused it to work for me, was to run the appimage under Firejail, with this in my digikam.local: blacklist /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libssl* blacklist /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libcrypto*
In fact the reason about the SSL dysfunction and AppImage is due to missing libssl.so in the bundle. See the crash with the 6.0.0 pre release : (gdb) bt #0 0x00007fffe8a6fd5a in __strcmp_sse2_unaligned () from /lib64/libc.so.6 #1 0x00000033132e62aa in ??

Making a symbolic link in the bundle from libssl.so.10 (the version used to build the AppImage under Centos6) and libssl.so solve the problem. Gilles Caulier
