I am new to django but I know MySQL. However I wanted to connect django with mysql but is stuck at this point where I have to install mysqlclient but getting the error. I have already installed mysql server, created a virtualenv but still not able to install mysqlclient.

Here is the error I am getting:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lssl
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lcrypto
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc' failed with exit status 1
