In general you should search for software through the software center or if you like the command line, you can use apt-cache search. In this case, the following package showed up (on 11.10): libssl0.9.8

You could try to install it (sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8). If this does not help, you might want to tell us, which ubuntu version you are using.

On Ubuntu 12.04 64bit version, it worked to install the 32 bit version:

sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8:i386

But, of course, when you're on 32 bit Ubuntu, this should just work (without the :i386):

sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8

If you are using 11.10 (since you did not mention it) you then have libssl1.0.0 which is higher than 0.9.8. Any program that needs 0.9.8 will also be able to handle versions above that one.

If you do NOT have 11.10 then you have several ways:

  1. Go to the OpenSSL site: http://www.openssl.org/ and follow installations there.

  2. Go to Ubuntu Packages and download the .DEB from there: http://packages.ubuntu.com/

  3. Go to Debian Packages and dowload the .DEB from there: http://www.debian.org/distrib/packages

  4. Install it via apt-get or aptitude:

    • sudo apt-get install libssl0.9.8 - For 0.9.8 Version
    • sudo aptitude install libssl0.9.8 - For 0.9.8 Version
    • sudo apt-get install libssl1.0.0 - For 1.0.0 Version
    • sudo aptitude install libssl1.0.0 - For 1.0.0 Version

Download package

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/o/openssl098/libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-7ubuntu3.1_i386.deb

Then install it

sudo apt install "libssl0.9.8_0.9.8o-7ubuntu3.1_i386.deb"

Just try this steps when you need it for CAV for Linux.

If you already tried to install cav but there is error with Libssl0.9.8:

  1. sudo apt-get --purge remove cav-linux
  2. Deinstall all libssl0.9.8 from/with Synaptic
  3. sudo apt-get clean
  4. sudo apt-get autoremove
  5. sudo aptitude install libssl0.9.8

and then install the normal way.

  1. Create a directory /opt/COMODO

    Copy cav file there:

    cd /opt/COMODO
sudo dpkg -i cav-linux_1.1.268025-1_amd64.deb

  2. Download driver and rebuild driver

    copy them to /opt/COMODO

    run post setup:

    sudo /opt/COMODO/post_setup.sh

  3. Execute this only if you get an error that RedirFS modules are not installed 

    sudo bash /opt/COMODO/fix_rebuild_driver.sh
sudo /opt/COMODO/post_setup.sh

  4. Reboot
