Today I was finishing a build for LFS , using ALFS (book version 7.10, alfs
version development) on a machine and got this error when building the

scripts/sign-file.c:25:30: fatal error: openssl/opensslv.h: No such file or
directory
  #include <openssl/opensslv.h>

I assume it needs openssl, but why would this be?

Full log:

compilation terminated.

It looks like openssl is needed to sign the file. It appears that the option CONFIG_MODULE_SIG causes scripts/sign-file.c to be built.

See the kernel configuration at 'Enable loadable module support'

scripts/Makefile:hostprogs-$(CONFIG_MODULE_SIG)  += sign-file
