   No installed SSL libraries found in any of the following places.
   /local
   /local/ssl
   /opt/ssl
   /usr
   /usr/local
   /usr/local/ssl
   /usr/local/openssl
   You will have to either specify a directory location at the following
   prompt, or rerun the Makefile.PL program and use the –lib switch
   to specify the path. If the path in question is considered standard
   on your platform, please consider filing a bug report in order to
   have it taken into account in a subsequent version of Crypt::SSLeay.

   Which SSL install path do you want to use? /usr/local
   /usr/local does not appear to be an SSL library installation, since
   the required header files were not found. The build cannot proceed.
   Running make test
   Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won’t test
   Running make install
   Make had some problems, maybe interrupted? Won’t install

   Not sure. I’m assuming that you’ve already installed the Mac developer CD and have XCode, … already installed. If not, you should do that first.

   The install is looking for an SSL library – a place where you have set up a public/private key pair. It looked in all the usual places – /local, /local/ssl, etc., but didn’t find your keys. If you don’t have an SSL key, create one. Check out http://help.github.com/mac-key-setup/ for info on how to set up your key.

   After you have a key then run the install again. Specify where your keys are and the install will continue and be successful.
