Installing the ssl lib worked. Thanks.
BTW: Just doing this for the pure fun of it (yes I'm strange) That said, I'm stuck again. checking for LIBNOTIFY... no configure: error: Package requirements (libnotify) were not met: No package 'libnotify' found Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables LIBNOTIFY_CFLAGS and LIBNOTIFY_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details. I searched the package manager and I thought I had the right thing, but it won't let me install in. I searched on libnotify and found A library that sends desktop notifications to a notification daemon, as defined in the Desktop Notifications spec. These notifications can be used to inform the user about an event or display some form of information without getting in the user's way. This package contains development files for the notify-sharp library built against Gtk# 3.0, and should be used for compilation. But I can't install it. Since BOINC has already been built for raspian, there has to be a way around this. Like I said, my Linux fu is weak.
