+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Hi, I downloaded openvpn-2.3.7.zip and unzipped it to my /home directory. On my Debian 7 operating system, I did the following: sudo apt-get install libssl-dev liblzo2-dev libpam0g-dev checkinstall build-essential -y cd openvpn-2.3.7 ./configure make sudo checkinstall I encountered some errors and do not know how to resolve them and would appreciate your help. Below is the log: ******************************************************** Installing with make install... ========================= Installation results =========================== make
