| 5 | This library has now entered : |
| 6 | * mainstream Linux distributions (e. g. Debian testing, which means Ubuntu in 4 months...), |
| 7 | * but not (yet) cygwin |
| 8 | * (I dunno about Mac OS X, which has [https://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/21944 other problems]). |

| 10 | However, one notes that cygwin has now Python 2.7.12, which **is** patched for openssl>=1.1. |

| 12 | These distributions can no longer compile Sagemath with a functional pip. Therefore, unless we are willing to restrict Sagemath use to "stable" (read "antique") distributions, we have to either patch our current Python or upgrade it. |
