sudo apt-get install build-essential

is always a good start...

What if the error is cannot find -lssl and ssl package is installed? and on /usr/lib there is a libssl.a ; libssl.so ; libssl.so.0.9.8 and libssl3.so

The .so files only libssl3.so doesn't have the shortcut arrow on the icon.

same thing happened to -ljpeg... and I have libjpeg installed too.

What could be wrong?

Development libraries / packages are often marked as libwhatever-dev, so maybe try to install libjpeg-dev, or something like that.

It is already installed... every libjpeg or libssl related package is installed... except for libjpeg62-dev as libjpeg8-dev is installed... but I also tried with 62 and still same error...
