The following worked for me:

Download the source from Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/weex/files/weex/

Copy config.guess into the build directory, for example from /usr/share/automake-1.15/config.guess.

Change line 36 of configure.in to

AC_CHECK_LIB([ssl],[SSL_connect],

and run

autoconf configure.in > configure
automake --add-missing
autoreconf -vf
./configure
make
sudo make install

Now there is a /usr/local/bin/weex that doesn't crash.

I did download the weex_2.8.3+b1_amd64.deb package from debian and extract the executable into /usr/local/bin/weex - that works too, including SSL - will that mean, ubuntu will get a working weex package some time automagically?

This also happens in ubuntu 20.04 lts

If build from source without libssl-dev also happens
alter building the package with libssl-dev installed the app works great

To avoid the problem, I moved to Unison (https://github.com/bcpierce00/unison), thus I cannot say if the problem has been fixed or not in more recent version of weex. Anybody has an update on this?
