Plase note that Net::SSLeay is packaged by Ubuntu. If you don't need the latest CPAN version of Net::SSLeay, you can use the Ubuntu package management tools to install the package named libnet-ssleay-perl.

The compilation seems to fail because your host doesn't have a C compiler installed. Try installing Ubuntu package named gcc. You'll likely need Ubuntu package named libssl-dev too beause it brings in headers which are needed when compiling software that requires OpenSSL.
