Recompiling python with SSL support on ubuntu
I have built/installed Python 2.7 on my Ubuntu 10.04 and I just saw that SSL is not activated.
Do I have to rebuild Python ?
How can I rebuild it with SSL support and update my current install ?
I would not like to have a new install in parallel.
Trying to use oauth2:
>>> import oauth2
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/oauth2/init.py", line 32, in import httplib2
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/httplib2/init.py", line 801, in class HTTPSConnectionWithTimeout(httplib.HTTPSConnection):
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'HTTPSConnection'
Docs are telling
HTTPS support is only available if the socket module was compiled with SSL support.
So I wanted to activate SSL support

To link custom built software with library you need to have C headers installed. In ubuntu they are in -dev packages (libname-dev).
In your particular case you need to install libssl-dev (apt-get install libssl-dev) and
- If you need SSL related functionality in standard library, then you should rebuild your python 2.7 installation.
- For custom library SSL support, just rebuild libraries (pip uninstall && pip install)
Try running easy_install pyopenssl
Or you can manually install the egg from https://launchpad.net/pyopenssl/
Once you extract the tarball, move into that folder and run:
python setup.py build
python setup.py install
And check if libssl-dev is installed
