I am trying to install python via pyenv on my new ArchLinux install
pyenv install 3.5.1Downloading Python-3.5.1.tar.xz...

Installing Python-3.5.1...
ERROR: The Python ssl extension was not compiled. Missing the OpenSSL lib?

Ignoring ensurepip failure: pip 7.1.2 requires SSL/TLS
And it failes due to missing OpenSSL support. I had it running on my previous Arch installation but I can't remember what I did back then.
The FAQ in the Wiki does not provide a working solution
