Cannot Compile Socat binaries

[natig0ng0]

I am currently facing an issue trying to build the socat static binaries. Please find below the issue.

openssl-1.1.0f/e_os.h

• cd openssl-1.1.0f
• CC='/usr/bin/gcc -static'
• ./Configure no-shared no-async linux-x86_64
  "glob" is not exported by the File::Glob module
  Can't continue after import errors at /usr/lib/perl5/core_perl/File/Glob.pm line 42.
  BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./Configure line 17.

Sorry to hijack this Issue, but I have been working on a successor project: https://github.com/Azathothas/Toolpacks
There's already over 2000+ precompiled binaries available to download, including socat:
