Python requires SSL

Open siscia opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

I believe that python requires the OpenSSL package, roughly here: https://github.com/alisw/alidist/blob/master/python.sh#L9 but also here: https://github.com/alisw/alidist/blob/master/python.sh#L28

Installing python from yum seems to fix the problem.

OpenSSL in principle comes from Alien, for historical reasons. What error do you get?

Hi,

Indeed I am building a peculiar project with AliBuild (SHiP) and so I may work in an environment a little singular. Moreover I was building it in a raw CC7 image.

Unfortunately I don't remember the exact error, I move on using alidock.

Are you guys interested in this kind of report? I don't believe I will get many more, but if I do I can open it and paste the whole error along with the recipe.

Feel free to close the issue though.

Cheers, Simone

Ah, yes, indeed you are right. I guess we should add support for standalone openssl installations not coming from Alien-Runtime. I am interested in all kind of feedback. Thank you for yours. I will try to see what I can do.
