Luke Carrier <h...@lukecarrier.me> added the comment:

I've not done enough digging on the issue I'm presently experiencing to draw 
any conclusions make any suggestions, but this change seems to break the 
present distribute module (version 0.6.27). It appears it will likely break a 
great deal of other code too.

I've pasted the relevant output here and attached the full traceback.
  File "/usr/lib64/python3.2/hashlib.py", line 112, in __get_openssl_constructor
    f(usedforsecurity=False)
TypeError: openssl_md5() takes no keyword arguments

Whilst I agree with the notion behind this change, Fedora's quick actions have 
led to me spending the best part of an hour of the night before ship day 
diagnosing issues caused by undocumented (or at least under-documented) changes 
to code I haven't written or interfaced with. _Please_ publicise the change a 
little better? Pretty please!?
