  • Purpose or scenario:
  • List of related articles to link to:

OMI (libmi.so or libmi.dylib) cannot be support for the following reasons:

  1. OMI will not fix PowerShell bugs meaning PowerShell cannot offer any level of support

    PowerShell is out of omi scope now.

    • Known and unknown security issues will not be fixed
      • Know security issues are mitigated with warning in the PowerShell code
  2. OMI does not load OpenSSL correctly causing segfaults
    Here you can see that OMI has the expectation that OpenSSL is carried around with the package.
    This is a different expectation than .NET leading to segfaults when conflicting depenecies are loaded.
