Error installing PKI package in R

Question

I'd like to publish a slidify presentation in RPubs but it requires PKI and rsconnect packages.

I'm having this error message when trying to install PKI package in R

Does someone knows what's happen here?

I second @hrbrmstr comment. Install `sudo apt-get install libssl-dev`, as you apparently are on Ubuntu. — , Jul 03 '15 at 03:14
@Pascal Thanks! that was the point.. then I did it with `devtools::install_github("s-u/pki")` — Juanchi, Jul 04 '15 at 11:59

On Ubuntu, you need to install libssl-dev in order to install the header files for SSL.:

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

or via Synaptic.

It's probably a good idea to also install libcurl4-openssl-dev, which last I checked you needed for the related package RCurl.

I confirm that this works on Ubuntu 18.04 with R 3.5.1. After installing `libssl-dev`, I could execute `install.packages("PKI")` without errors. – stragu Dec 19 '18 at 01:18

I have the same problem, but for RHEL. I have sudo yum install openssl-devel and problem solved!
