Once you narrow down the list to a few possible names, use apt-cache show to see the descriptions: $ apt-cache show libssl-dev (description omitted)

Thanks very much, that was the correct name: libssl-dev, not openssl-dev or similar...Nick On Mon, Oct 17, 2016 at 4:33 PM, deloptes wrote: > Nicholas Geovanis wrote: > > > I can't tell which debian 8.4 package provides the C headers for OpenSSL, > > the "Usual suspects" such as openssl-devel and the like do not exist, > > dpkg-query doesn't seem to find anything likely.
