This will force zed to fallback to the system `libssl` and `libcrypto` libraries.
### Editing files requiring root access
When you try to edit files that require root access, Zed requires `pkexec` (part of polkit) to handle authentication prompts.
Polkit comes pre-installed with most desktop environments like GNOME and KDE. If you're using a minimal system and polkit is not installed, you can install it with:
- Ubuntu/Debian: `sudo apt install policykit-1`
- Fedora: `sudo dnf install polkit`
- Arch Linux: `sudo pacman -S polkit`
