Additionally, the Windows and Mac OS X installers for Python may include a copy of the OpenSSL libraries, so we include a copy of the OpenSSL license here: ISTR that last year update of Python (to which you contributed mightily) bumped on SSL issues. But my memories are foggy. And, BTW, "our" pip is partially nonfunctional, thanks (among other) to SSL issues. So it *should* be patched. > It seems to me that R is the only package causing us so much trouble > with SSL. > No : **I** cause "so much trouble" with SSL issues because they become important to R real-world usage, and I do not think that a non-communicating R is useful in Sage. Python/pip SSL usage do not cause "so much trouble" with SSL issues because the potential users of SSL functionalities are more patient than I am... -- Emmanuel Charpentier -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
