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?

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 or openssl-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.
