And there is a perlbase-devel package available, but it does not contain an EXTERN.h

Going by your original post, EXTERN.h (and a whole lot of other headers) should be in /usr/lib/perl5/5.20/CORE.
I envisage that all of those headers are missing, and that the error signifies that EXTERN.h was the first required header that couldn't be located.
EXTERN.h is, of course, the first header that SSLeay.xs tries to load.

I don't suppose there's a perlbase-core (or similar name) package available ?


Cheers,
Rob
