Installation Guide
[NOTE] You can build python without SSL, though pip won’t work.
Download & Build OpenSSL 1.1.1
cd /opt
border-leftsudo wget -O openssl.tgz https://ftp.openssl.org/source/old/1.1.1/openssl-1.1.1j.tar.gz
sudo tar xzf openssl.tgz
sudo rm openssl.tgz
cd openssl-1.1.1j/
sudo ./config --prefix=/opt/openssl
sudo make
sudo make install
Install Python 3.10.6
cd /opt
sudo wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.10.0/Python-3.10.0.tgz
sudo tar xzf Python-3.10.0.tgz
cd Python-3.10.0
sudo ./configure --with-openssl=/opt/openssl
if you won’t use altinstall then it can replace your current version.
sudo make altinstall
Check python version
python3.10 --version
Personally I like to store python environment in the same folder with my project.
So let’s create it.
mkdir PyProject
cd PyProject
python3.10 -m venv ./venv
source venv/bin/activate # source venv/bin/activate.fish (for fish shell)
Now normal python command should work, because we are in the environment.
python --version
and now we can upgrade pip
python -m pip install --upgrade pip
And to exit/deactivate environment we can just do:
deactivate
