If you ever see
error: invalid use of incomplete type BIGNUM
in an error log, then it means you have OpenSSL 1.1, and the project is compatible only with OpenSSL 1.0.X. Downgrade your OpenSSL to make it work.
I'm not sure if this is the problem or not. Apparently, there is a version of libssl-dev that causes some problems. Although the steps listed on this site specify Raspbian (which is a derivative of Debian) it might be worth looking to see if this could be your problem.
The steps are found at https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Radium_Core/Raspberry_Pi.
