You need the sources of the OpenSSL library, not the compiled library.
On Ubuntu, the packages with sources are typically named xxx-dev where
xxx is the package that provides the library. I don't have a Ubuntu
currently, but try looking for something like openssl-dev or
libopenssl-dev etc.

Do the <library>-dev packages on Ubuntu really contain the sources for
the libraries?

I knew they contained the static libraries and the include files
required to build against the libraries, but I didn't think they
contained the library sources.
