Category: Build Group: 3rd Party Status: Closed Resolution: Invalid Priority: 5 Submitted By: Alan Meyer (vrmeyer) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: openssl-0.9.8 requires _ssl.mak change Initial Comment: When building _ssl.pyd for Windows I downloaded the latest openssl (0.9.8) released today, July 5, 2005. After building the openssl libraries successfully I downloaded the source code for Python 2.4.1 and ran PCBuild/_ssl.mak. It failed to link four Windows functions in cryptlib.obj in libeay32.lib in openssl. To fix this, "user32.lib" must be added to the definition of "LIBS" in _ssl.mak. We have not tested further, deciding to fallback to an earlier version of openssl since, clearly this latest version had not yet been tested with Python and we are building this for production code. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Alan Meyer (vrmeyer) Date: 2005-07-06 17:02 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=338015 I agree it's not a bug but didn't see any way to indicate it as an enhancement in the SourceForge interface. I recorded it simply as a note to whoever supports ssl in Python since they will eventually want to upgrade to later versions of openssl, and thought my note might save them a bit of trouble. Thanks for your support of Python. Regards, Alan ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Martin v. Löwis (loewis) Date: 2005-07-06 05:14 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=21627 This is indeed not a bug. The build process on Windows is only meant to work with the versions of packages listed in PCbuild/readme.txt, which means OpenSSL 0.9.7d. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=105470&aid=1233049&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
