   I think the incantation to check for the openssl version that the system package manager has installed is `openssl version`...the commands to install it are provided (perhaps confusingly) later on in the developer guide. We could also just list distributions that commonly use one or the other...we have a list of them somewhere for the purposes of installing the correct release binary.
   
   After @nealrichardson's PR refactoring the configure script, a totally reasonable approach is also just a naive "install" or "load all", which will take forever the first time while it builds libarrow but won't attempt to *re*build libarrow unless a user explicitly deletes the libarrow directory.
