It's libssl-dev on Ubuntu (remove the "el" at the end). But I can build sage/python without that package though. > (2) rebuild the Python spkg in Sage: > > cd SAGE_ROOT > ./sage -f python It needs a one line patch on Ubuntu. Try instead (take note this is a work in progress): cd SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard wget http://users.aims.ac.za/~jan/python-2.6.4.p10.spkg sage -f python-2.6.4.p10.spkg ( Note that only works after you did 'cd SAGE_ROOT; make', and it failed to build the crypt module in the python spkg, but the other packages are built.
