Hello there!

Trying to generate registration certificate on offline machine, but as result got an error:

cardano-cli: symbol lookup error: cardano-cli: undefined symbol: crypto\_vrf\_ietfdraft03\_publickeybytes

![crypto_vrf_ietfdraft03_publickeybytes](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/cardano/original/3X/e/d/ed31e629e0a1eabb29536533e36f7a3adeb1f68c.png)

I have tried:

- reinstall libsecp256k1 and libblst libs
- checks the .bashrc file for lib paths

How this error can be fixed?

Thanks for any help
