Unable to load lib file when using Conda virtual environment

I am on macOS Catalina and Python 3.7. While on Conda base, the application runs without errors. However, running it in a Conda virtual environment results in the following error.

I have tried symbolic linking /usr/lib to ../lib but it seemed to have created more issues. Any help is appreciated!

I am not familiar with Conda virtual environments. Do they modify access to the filesystem somehow, or provide some sort of symlinked root folder structure?

[chunheisiu]

So instead of /usr/local/anaconda3/lib/, the virtual environment seems to have a separate lib directory, which does not contain the libcrypto.42.dylib in this case. I am happy to provide more information if it helps.

This should be fixed by c184e9013d280107d59f0622d6258b4813348fc8
