Yes, The Debian and Ubuntu binary packages do not come with OpenSSL support.

Are you aware of how to use alternative repositories with apt-get ?

There is now a 3.5 package in the Ubuntu xenial repository. You will
need to add that repository to your sources.list for deb and deb-src.

If you want/need eCAP you will need to build a new libecap3 and
libecap3-dev package for your old Ubuntu system and install those before
starting to build Squid:
  apt-get -t trusty build-dep libecap
  apt-get -t xenial -b source libecap3
  apt-get -t xenial -b source libecap3-ev

Otherwise you will need to remove the --enable-ecap line when eiting the
squid package debian/rules file.

To build squid:
 apt-get -t trusty install libssl-dev
 apt-get -t trusty build-dep squid
 apt-get -t xenial -b source squid

the first time you run the build of 'squid' package should fail.

Go into the folder it creates and then the debian/ sub-folder and edit
the file called 'rules'.

What you are doing is adding --with-openssl to the list of Squid
features to build. And maybe removing the --enable-ecap if you dont want
do the above ecap steps.


Then go back out to th directory you started in and run this command again:
  apt-get -t xenial -b source squid

this should succeed, and the resulting package will have OpenSSL support.
