Here is the stdout for installation:

It seems there's 'openssl/err.h' missing, help I'm new to perl. Thanks alot.

Answer 1

Argh, headers for ssl library is missing. I apt-get the dev package and problem solved.

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

Answer 2

For Fedora/CentOS users:

yum install openssl-devel

edit: as others have said, the OpenSSL headers were missing. On Fedora/CentOS, these headers are provided by the openssl-devel package, which should therefore be installed.

Answer 3

For fedora users:

yum groupinstall 'Development Tools' 'Development Libraries'

yum install zlib-devel libyaml-devel openssl-devel gdbm-devel readline-devel ncurses-devel libffi-devel curl git openssh-server redis libxml2-devel libxslt-devel libcurl-devel libicu-devel python
