Description
Moving the issue from [here](https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf/issues/1620#issue-1852810928).
The current build instructions don't specify the system package requirements for building python with asdf on a fresh OS. Might be worth adding these, or bake it into the install script that would prompt the user with the install commands so they won't be left confused after a failed installation. Here are the five packages that are required to build python:
```sh
sudo apt-get install libffi-dev libreadline-dev libssl-dev
sudo apt-get install libsqlite3-dev liblzma-dev # optional
```
