   yeah, that's what i thought... your *nix has libcrypto 0.9.8 and 1.0.0 but   
   your bbbs is looking for libcrypto 10 as i mentioned previously...

   yeah... a quick google turns up this link

   seeing that your system already has libcrypto.so.1.0.0 installed, i will make   
   an educated guess that you also have the above mentioned libssl installed...   
   with that in mind, i would suggest creating a softlink similar to the above...   
      
   sudo ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.10   
      
   AND/OR   
      
   sudo ln -s /lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/i386-   
   inux-gnu/libcrypto.so.10   
      
   [watch the wordwrap on that last line!]   
      
   if this doesn't work for you, you can delete the one (or two) softlinks we   
   created so your system is not cluttered up with them which may cause problems   
   later...   
      
   sudo rm /usr/lib/libcrypto.so.10   
      
   AND/OR   
      
   sudo rm /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libcrypto.so.10   
      
   either way, the maintainer still needs to be informed of the problem so they   
   can correct it so that others don't have to dance this dance ;)   
      
   NOTE: if you want to, you can verify your libssl with "locate libssl" in the   
   same way that we did with libcrypto ;)
