Updating openssl in python 2.7

by

Please refer to http://rkulla.blogspot.kr/2014/03/the-path-to-homebrew.html

After upgrading openssl to 1.0.1j by homebrew on MAC, but system python still referred to old version 0.9.8. It turned out the python referred to openssl. So I have installed new python with brewed openssl and finished this issue on Mac, not yet Ubuntu.

On Mac OS X version 10.10 and system python version 2.7.6, my procedure is as follows:

$ brew update

$ brew install openssl

Then you can see openssl version 1.0.1j.

$ brew link openssl --force 

$ brew install python --with-brewed-openssl

You have to install new python with brewed openssl. Then, you can see /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.8_2/bin/python.

$ sudo ln -s /usr/local/Cellar/python/2.7.8_2/bin/python /usr/local/bin/python

Of course, /usr/local/* should be owned by $USER, not root, which is told by Ryan, but I used ‘sudo’. And, before this instruction, I didn’t have /usr/local/bin/python. After this instruction, you can use python version 2.7.8 not 2.7.6.

Finally, you can see as belows;

$ python --version  
Python 2.7.8

$ python -c "import ssl; print ssl.OPENSSL_VERSION"
OpenSSL 1.0.1j 15 Oct 2014

Till now, I’m working on it on Ubuntu 12.04. If I have a solution for Ubuntu 12.04, then I will update my answer. I hope this procedure help you.
