Buildout: Trying to build Pound

// under buildout pound recipe

So, trying to build pound through a Buildout recipe was failing part of the way through.

Two problems and their solutions (not necessarily in that order):

• Needed to install libssl-dev because lcrypto was missing (ambiguity anyone?) - Synaptic says that the package provides “libssl and libcrypto development libraries, header files and manpages” (but never mind a search for `libcrypto`…)
• Had to correct the relevant user that the recipe was telling pound to build as.

The first point was pretty silly and the second one was just clearly my copy-and-paste mistake.
