Are you sure that's not a typo? You probably want hashlib (which
should work regardless of OpenSSL being found). I'd be really
surprised if "import haslib" (missing h) worked anywhere.
will fail as the OpenSSL libraries are not found, but they are on
the command line, so it works. Having the ability to run the tests
online might be a good idea. I realise that would use a lot of CPU
time on public servers, but for test purposes, I'd disable any use
of CPU time. In any case, for personal installations, it would again
be useful to check that the tests pass in the GUI, as clearly some
problems can cause them to fail.
If this is not possible, should I submit this as trac ticket for
enhancement. Given I have proven that some additional problems can
occur in the GUI, it would seem sensible that testes can be run on
the GUI.
BTW, Sage is not the only package to have specific issues on the
GUI. I recall Mathematica using tons of CPU time if called to
compute something as simple as 1+1 on some old Solaris machines, if
the graphical interface was used. But at the command line, it worked
fine.
