Answer 1

Try this:

Debian / Ubuntu:

apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libio-pty-perl libmd5-perl

CentOS / Fedora:

yum install openssl-devel perl perl-Net-SSLeay perl-Crypt-SSLeay

Jump

libnet-ssleay-perl was the missing library in my case (Ubuntu 14.04 release) – Tyndareus

Answer 2

The answer posted seems old. I have encountered same issue while using Nikto2 https://github.com/sullo/nikto in Ubuntu 20.04.5.

I could resolve the issue by running

sudo apt-get install perl libnet-ssleay-perl openssl libauthen-pam-perl libio-pty-perl
