more openssl issues... this happen with aws as well and a lot other services. if you have openssl-1.1 installed try reinstalling pyopenssl

#

@hollow bison

#

honestly they completely fucked openssl over with no warning. ridiculous

hollow bison
#

thing is, my protonvpn has been broken long before the openssl bs

#

and i have tried that

wraith gate
#

ah. it seems to emerge in a lot of applications recently. you have tried both?

#

also when did it start? and was it after any particular event? like update or reboot

hollow bison
#

not too sure, i think it was after a python update?

#

tried reinstallin gthe aur package a bunch of times too, no dice

wraith gate
#

okay your issue is in pyopenssl

hollow bison
#

rip
i've reinstalled that after installing openssl-1.1

wraith gate
#

try reinstall pyopenssl, if doesn't work try downgrade to 22.0.0

#

using pip

#

that should fix your issue

#

if it doesn't work let me know

hollow bison
#

aight, gonna try in a but, thank you

wraith gate
#

np

hollow bison
#

handling python packages with pip reminds me how i hate pip for not having an upgrade all option

wraith gate
#

yeah :(

hollow bison
#

uwoooh

#

TYSM

wraith gate
#

:D fixed?

hollow bison
wraith gate
#

ayy! make sure to add [solved] to post title btw

hollow bison
#

i had pyopenssl installed via pacman
forced an install from pip, it works now :v

wraith gate
#

good that you've got it up and working then
