dev-python/urllib3: LibreSSL not supported warning

[mikejzx]

The following irritating message is produced whenever urllib3 is invoked, most notably while performing an emerge --sync:

/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/urllib3/__init__.py:34: NotOpenSSLWarning: urllib3 v2.0 only supports OpenSSL 1.1.1+, currently the 'ssl' module is compiled with 'LibreSSL 3.8.0'. See: https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3020

The message references https://github.com/urllib3/urllib3/issues/3020 as users of MacOS were getting a similar message due to their ssl modules being compiled with LibreSSL also, albeit much older versions (2.8.3).

Although this is only a warning and software that depends on the library still seems to work as expected, I was wondering if this should be addressed at all, whether we should simply ignore the warning entirely, suppress it, upgrade any particular packages, try to patch it, etc.

Thanks

The warning was added by upstream as a compromise to allow LibreSSL to work at all, before this it was an explicit error. To drop the warning the package would have to have a non-upstreamable patch that would need to be rebased every time that ::gentoo modifies the ebuild. Given that I have been ignoring the warning, it doesn't cause any harm other than console spam that I have noticed.
