so I haven't played with fedora in some time.
yum install openssl
if installed, you need to make a system link pointing the version of libssl.so.x.x.x you have installed to link/point to libssl.so.1.0.0
example
ln -s /usr/lib/libssl.so.10 /usr/lib/libssl.so.1.0.0
NOT sure the lib directory for fedora either... might be /usr/lib64 you'll need to check and verify this.
Then back to fritzing directory
sh Fritzing
Good luck!
Fedora , RedHat or RHLE or SL are all IBM Linux support distros.
You are correct yum install

so much excitemnt but is did not work....
I am sure the answer is simple....and I will do a Homer Simpson "D'ho" when it works..
Thank you for your help
I just hope I am not doing some weird confusion to my OS.... if it all fails perhaps I will need to re install SL6 ...
I am trying to make a raspberry pi add-on board, and I was wondering how I could get access to connections on the RPi's GPIO that are next to the edge of the board?
I set the autorouter to do it, and it successfully routed 2 out of 3 of the connections I had created in schematic view, but when I ran DRC it said they were too close to the edge of the board.
This a picture of the PCB with the DRC window open:
Any help much appreciated!!
Great! Thanks a lot!

There is slight differences in pin position between brands, ie 22mm to 22.2mm and 8mm to 7.7mm PCD, but the pin is 1mm in a 1.4mm hole so all should fit.

Generally it's the method of production that dictates if it's too close to the edge. Production houses are accurate and can run close, home DIY etching depends on your skill.
The DRC makes you aware of problems, but it's up to you to decide if it's ok to ignore.
Other hints
Generally nobody uses 90º bends in their traces anymore, they are all 45º elbows now. It can cause resonant frequencies.
Generally nobody uses auto route because it's not smart enough - it's a legacy from the 80s when everything was vertical in one layer and horizontal in the other -.
This is all hand routed
Does /usr/lib/libssl.so.10 exist on your system (that was just an example, you need to replace the /usr/lib/libssl.so.10 with the path and library version that your system has installed)? From the error message I'd guess it doesn't. You need to do an ls on /usr/llib and /usr/lib64 and see which of them has a libssl and replace the /usr/lib/libssl.so.10 witht he path and version on your system.
Hello Fritzing Community,
I was wondering if anyone had any advice as to a potential workaround to create a 4-layer PCB in Fritzing?
I've made several 2-layer PCBs and I would now like to attempt to create a single board, featuring all these circuits and use 2 internal layers to form connections between the vias/headers as there isn't enough available space on the outer layers.
Since you can't explicitly create a 4-layer PCB in the software, is there a way in which I could create two sets of Gerber files (outer layers and inner layers) and then edit/combine them so that they would technically be a 4-layer PCB (as far as production is concerned)?
Any advice and information would be greatly appreciated - I really don't want to have to draw up 10 circuits again in another package. 
Thanks. 
Kind Regards,
A.K

Hello,
Hopefully the subject was worded well. I'm designing a PCB that has a bunch of 3.5mm headphone jack inputs. I know that the parts library has a number of them that I can drag onto the breadboard, but I'm doing something slightly different. I'm going to mount a different kind of headphone input into an enclosure and not solder them directly to the PCB.
Is there a way to create a circuit for an arbitrary component? Ideally I'd like to run some wires from the jacks into some female headers that are soldered onto the board, so if I use one of the 3.5mm parts, those headers won't fit. Thanks for any help.
I have the Debian .DEB files for the 64 bit. You or I, could attempt to convert them to .RPM with alien,
Once converted, you could attempt to install with yum.
Another thought.
Done, stay tuned. If you PM me your email address, I give you a download link.
If I understand what you want, you need bendable leads on a 3.5mm jack. The bendable leads simulate connection wires (as for instance the microphone in core parts) in breadboard. If microphone will do what you need, if you pick a jack (and a quick look says there is only one not on a board) that suits you, bendable leads can be added reasonably easily as a custom part.
Not really. My thought was I'd have a row of generic prototyping female headers soldered onto the PCB, like these: https://cdn.sparkfun.com//assets/parts/6/9/0/1/11269-01.jpg
I would solder wires to the leads on the panel-mountable 3.5mm jacks and run those wires into the female headers. This way I can design my enclosure the way I want while keeping the board the size I want, and know that if something goes wrong with one of the jacks I can just replace it without having to do any desoldering.
So the feature that I'm really looking for are empty holes that I can route to ground, GPIO, etc.
Ah, parts->connectors. Drag one on to the board and Inspector will let you change the number of pins (and produce appropriate views in schematic and PCB). Even easier.
Thank you but that is getting outside my knowledge area...perhaps I need to learn more how to run linux before revisiting that problem - in essence it was an eay exercise that went wrong for what ever reason which is for now beyond me - I have fritzing on my win10 computer and it works well there....I will revisit the problem in some future time.
Thanks - my emai: wavelets@bigpond.com.au
thank you for your help as this was getting outside my comfort zone...I have Fritzing running on my Win system - it works fine.
deb - rpm would be nice...Thank you
Depending on what you want Linux for you may want to consider a different distro. It appears Scientific Linux is like Centos (i.e. a copy of RHEL) aimed at stable data center type operations which means their programs and libraries are a few generations behind (on stable versions). Many of the interesting apps (and I don't know if that includes Fritzing or not ) need later more bleeding edge libraries and versions. I used Centos for a while, but finally gave up as I had to load to many packages to new to be in their repository to do what I wanted. I just last night installed the latest Ubuntu desktop as I want to start playing with the Fritzing source and that's what it is developed on. May be a good choice for you as well or may not.
