Error when running stack build language-plutus-core on Windows 8

When I ran the command stack build language-plutus-core I received the following error:

--  While building custom Setup.hs for package cryptonite-openssl-0.7 using:
      C:\sr\setup-exe-cache\x86_64-windows\Cabal-simple_Z6RU0evB_2.4.0.1_ghc-8.6

    Process exited with code: ExitFailure 1
    Logs have been written to: C:\Projects\2019-08-07-Plutus\plutus-master\.stac
k-work\logs\cryptonite-openssl-0.7.log

    Configuring cryptonite-openssl-0.7...
    Cabal-simple_Z6RU0evB_2.4.0.1_ghc-8.6.4.exe: Missing dependencies on foreign  libraries:
    * Missing (or bad) C libraries: eay32, ssl32
    This problem can usually be solved by installing the system packages that
    provide these libraries (you may need the "-dev" versions). If the libraries are already installed but in a non-standard location then you can use the flags --extra-include-dirs= and --extra-lib-dirs= to specify where they are.
If the library files do exist, it may contain errors that are caught by the C compiler at the preprocessing stage. In this case you can re-run configure
with the verbosity flag -v3 to see the error messages.

Anyone any idea how to fix this? Do i need to install eay32, ssl32 separately?

Consider installing these packages using the bundled MSYS in your stack installation. First do stack exec bash to enter MSYS, then use the pacman in that MSYS environment.

The packages from the bundled pacman are from MinGW32, MinGW64 and MSYS2, so most of them (as far as I have used) should be prefixed with mingw-w64-i686- or mingw-w64-x86_64-. See the official documentation for msys2 for detailed information.
