@@ -133,6 +133,9 @@ 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
