pyenv bug?

[dnessett]

I think there may be a bug in pyenv. When I execute pyenv on a Linux Mint 21.1 machine, I get the following warnings. If this is not the right place to post this, let me know where and I will do so.

Installed Python-3.10.15 to /home/dnessett/.pyenv/versions/3.10.15

Prior to this when installing 3.10.15, I got a fatal error that openssl lib was missing. I then fixed it by:

sudo apt-get install libssl-dev

I also got a fatal error that said _ctypes were missing. I fixed that by executing:

sudo apt-get install libffi-dev
