What can I do to ensure apt-get is behaving properly? See below: [/root] # apt-get install openssl Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done openssl is already the newest version. [/root] # apt-get install libssl-dev Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information... Done libssl-dev is already the newest version.
