The last line is telling you what is going wrong. You probably need to install
openssl-devel in order for this to succeed. In that case maybe you should open

In case something isn't clear, just get back to this list.

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
