I'm trying to compile a program that, according to the documentation, requires the "OpenSSL library". I have OpenSSL installed, and it's still giving me the error openssl/sha.h: No such file or directory
. Is there some other library that has to be installed?
Debian – make fatal error: openssl/sha.h: No such file or directory

Best Answer
probably you are missing the openssl header files. depending on your distribution this package might have a different name, mostly it's something like
openssl-dev
oropenssl-devel
. after you installed the openssl header files, the compiler should be able to find openssl/sha.h.In Ubuntu/Debian the package is called
libssl-dev
.
