Zachary Ware added the comment: Still relevant, insofar as having Perl available is relevant. That is, you only need Perl available if you're using vanilla OpenSSL sources, not if you're using sources pulled from svn.python.org (which most people should do, I would think). I have never had a problem with build_ssl.py finding Perl, though.
That said, I don't see any harm in properly updating from os.popen to subprocess. See also issue21141, which aims to make explicit that Perl is only needed to doctor up vanilla OpenSSL source. ---------- versions: +Python 3.5 -Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue10752> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
