Undefined reference to WPACKET appearing as error during BLAT installation

Hello, I am trying to store the executable fixCr program in my variable x86_64 MACHTYPE directory. whenever I place the command make after going to the directory /Downloads/kent/src/utils/fixCr, this error message pops up

/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/ld: (.text+0x484): undefined reference to `WPACKET_close'
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/ld: (.text+0x494): undefined reference to `WPACKET_close'
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/ld: (.text+0x4a9): undefined reference to `WPACKET_get_total_written'
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/ld: (.text+0x4b9): undefined reference to `WPACKET_finish'
/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/ld: (.text+0x892): undefined reference to `WPACKET_cleanup'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [../../inc/userApp.mk:31: /home/sabreena/bin/x86_64/fixCr] Error 1

What should I do to overcome this error?

I managed to overcome the "WPACKET" ld issue by installing a virtual machine with Ubuntu server 18.04 (here : https://releases.ubuntu.com/bionic/) and building the soft in it ; I think what is needed is an older version of openssl.
