Comment(by koolfy):

 On "old" debian/ubuntu distributions, libssl might not be recent enough
 for libevent (dep is >= 0.9.8m-1)

 The easiest and most user-frienly workaround for now is to wget and sudo
 dpkg -i one of those :
 http://packages.ubuntu.com/oneiric/i386/libssl0.9.8/download

 As it's 0.9.8o the dep will be met and the build environment can therefore
 be installed with the dget described here
 (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/5009#comment:9) and the
 sudo dpkg -i discribed there
 (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/5009#comment:22)

 As opposed to building those manually and adding non-user-friendly and
 error-prone steps to the process described here
