Hi Ian, Thanks for your reply. I wasn't trying to import it from _ssl. That was part of the error. My code did not have RAND_egd. I think it was just about ssl package being missing. After installing analcondra distribution, it stopped throwing this particular error at least. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
