I had the same problem. Install libssl-dev.

Should be added to the Getting started wiki :)

I had met the same error. You have to install OpenSSL development package, which is available in standard repositories of all modern Linux distributions. The below code works for me. $ sudo apt-get install libssl-dev BTW, the libel-dev should be appended into the requirement.txt.

Same issue on Fedora 25. The following worked for me:

sudo dnf install openssl-devel
