Julia: Getting Openssl error while building from source on ubuntu 14.04.3 cmake version 2.8.12.2

This seems bug related to julia's build package. I am getting following error while building using make.

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:108 (message):
Could NOT find OpenSSL, try to set the path to OpenSSL root folder in the
system variable OPENSSL_ROOT_DIR (missing: OPENSSL_LIBRARIES
OPENSSL_INCLUDE_DIR)

What branch are you building? Do you have libssl-dev installed?

[arshpreetsingh]

yes libssl-dev was not installed, i am able to compile successfully.

that's documented in the readme for the release-0.5 branch, and no longer necessary on master
