Cargo build suddenly fails

[kng]

The build process I'm using is here. It has been working for quite some time but now suddenly it fails on finding libgpredict. = note: rust-lld: error: unable to find library -lgpredict I have tried the obvious ldconfig and a few other things, like adding lld and messing around with RUSTFLAGS, but no progress.

Also on the Dockerfile provided here it fails, but on another package.

[kng]

If I run cargo update before building, the docker build from this repo works.

I just came across this as well @kng.

I also had to do sudo apt install libssl-dev beforehand to fix the folllowing on a new setup:

  Could not find directory of OpenSSL installation, and this `-sys` crate cannot
  proceed without this knowledge. If OpenSSL is installed and this crate had
  trouble finding it,  you can set the `OPENSSL_DIR` environment variable for the
  compilation process.

  Make sure you also have the development packages of openssl installed.
  For example, `libssl-dev` on Ubuntu or `openssl-devel` on Fedora.

  If you're in a situation where you think the directory *should* be found
  automatically, please open a bug at https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl
  and include information about your system as well as this message.
