Hi. First time Rust user so excuse my naivety.

Running cargo install spotify-tui produces:

   ...

Could not find directory of OpenSSL installation, and this `-sys` crate cannot
proceed without this knowledge. If OpenSSL is installed and this crate had
trouble finding it,  you can set the `OPENSSL_DIR` environment variable for the
compilation process.

Make sure you also have the development packages of openssl installed.
For example, `libssl-dev` on Ubuntu or `openssl-devel` on Fedora.

If you're in a situation where you think the directory *should* be found
automatically, please open a bug at https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl
and include information about your system as well as this message.

$HOST = x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
$TARGET = x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
openssl-sys = 0.9.50


It looks like you're compiling on Linux and also targeting Linux. Currently this
requires the `pkg-config` utility to find OpenSSL but unfortunately `pkg-config`
could not be found. If you have OpenSSL installed you can likely fix this by
installing `pkg-config`.

Looking at https://github.com/sfackler/rust-openssl/issues/1164, it appears that openssl-sys v0.9.50 (which is in your dependency chain?) does not work with OpenSSL 1.1.1

I solved this error using sudo apt install libssl-dev, followed by sudo apt install pkg-config

I'm running WSL through the Windows Terminal app, Ubuntu 18.04.3

@nhuse9 Thanks! Adding pkg-config resolved it.
