Install and configure Yara/phpmalwarefinder on AMI (Amazon) Linux - amazon-lightsail

Question

I've installed Yara successfully by following the instructions here: https://yara.readthedocs.io/en/v3.8.1/gettingstarted.html#compiling-and-installing-yara including doing ./configure --with-crypto and didn't see any error messages.
When I get to the "make check" step, I get the following two failures.
PASS: test-alignment
PASS: test-atoms
PASS: test-api
FAIL: test-rules
FAIL: test-pe
PASS: test-elf
PASS: test-version
PASS: test-bitmask
PASS: test-math
PASS: test-exception

I posted my instructions here
https://github.com/nbs-system/php-malware-finder/issues/94
Here is how I got it running,
and a small patch
git clone git#github.com:VirusTotal/yara.git
cd yara/
sudo yum install autoconf automake libtool openssl-devel.x86_64 flex bison
YACC=bison ./configure
make
setup finder
cd ..
git clone git#github.com:nbs-system/php-malware-finder.git
cd php-malware-finder/
~/GitHub/devops/yara/yara -r ./php-malware-finder/php.yar ~/GitHub/sourcetoscan/
Had to patch this (nocase was duplicate)
diff --git a/php-malware-finder/php.yar b/php-malware-finder/php.yar
