can't seem to access openssl on pip3 or mnemosyne 3.6 on fedora 25

[Matthew Brin]

Latest mnemosyne needs latest python.  I am lost in the maze of different python versions.

My latest attempt at resolving this problem:

----------------------------------

# pip3 install ssl

[lines skipped]

Could not fetch URL https://pypi.org/simple/pip/: There was a problem confirming the ssl certificate: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='pypi.org', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /simple/pip/ (Caused by SSLError("Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.")) - skipping

----------------------------------

was to install openssl-devel (gave /usr/include/openssl/ssl.h)

and remake Python-3.7

This fails make test at a late test.  A few sample lines of output:

-------------------------------------

running: test_socket (17 min 16 sec)

running: test_socket (17 min 46 sec)

running: test_socket (18 min 16 sec)

--------------------------------------

Has anyone dealt with this here.  I will also search python forums (fora?)

[Matthew Brin]

Never mind.

As of now I am officially giving up on python and anything made from it.  That includes

mnemosyne.    mnemosyne should be ported to a sane platform.

Btw, there are very easy to use and sane Mnemosyne installers for the Windows platform, which include all depencies. Feel free to give those a try :-)

I might.  There is only one windows machine in the house and it is downstairs for the kids to play games on.

At the bottom it is not menmosyne's problem, but it really looks like python is self destructing.  When backwards

compatibility goes it is a bad sign.  Too bad.
