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.

error: build failed

OpenSSL is installed in this machine

$ openssl version
OpenSSL 1.1.1  11 Sep 2018

Expected Behaviour

Build is completed and tests are ran.

Steps to resolve

Please, include in the environment docs the following package for Ubuntu

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

Thank you!

I had a similar problem solved with:

sudo apt-get install pkg-config
