openssl not found Ubuntu 22.04

[khrynczenko]

Hello, I know the issues with OpenSSL are common but I could not find a problem specific to 22.04.
When I try to build openssl-sys I get the following output.

error: failed to run custom build command for `openssl-sys v0.9.66`

Caused by:
  process didn't exit successfully: `/home/khrynczenko/primagit/es-be/target/debug/build/openssl-sys-54ce76f9f6ef3006/build-script-main` (exit status: 101)

  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
  and include information about your system as well as this message.

I have openssl installed but I guess the problem is that it is the 3.0.2 version.

I built OpenSSL-1.1.1n manually from source and tried to run:
OPENSSL_DIR=~/OpenSSL111n/ cargo check
The directory looks as follows:

$ ls ~/OpenSSL111n/
include  lib
$ ls ~/OpenSSL111n/lib/
libcrypto.a  libcrypto.so  libcrypto.so.1.1  libssl.a  libssl.so  libssl.so.1.1
$ ls ~/OpenSSL111n/include/
crypto  internal  openssl
$

Now it builds but later in the compilation I get errors from sqlx like below:

error: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
  --> /home/khrynczenko/.cargo/registry/src/github.com-1ecc6299db9ec823/sqlx-0.5.13/src/lib.rs:71:1
   |
71 | pub extern crate sqlx_macros;
   | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Does anyone have a clue how I could fix it? Maybe there is some other way than building from source?

Did you install the libssl-dev package?

I get the following output when I try to install it.

Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libssl-dev : Depends: libssl3 (= 3.0.2-0ubuntu1.1) but 3.0.2-0ubuntu1.2 is to be installed
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

[sfackler]

It seems like something has gone wrong with your Ubuntu install. You need libssl-dev to build against OpenSSL.

[khrynczenko]

Eventually, I fixed it by building OpenSSL from the source and installing it using make install. But today I managed to install libssl-dev on my system without the aforementioned problems which is weird.
Anyway, thanks for the response.
