and link with a private copy of OpenSSL, like installers targeted
for 10.5 already do, since Apple has deprecated use of the system
OpenSSL and removed its header files from the Xcode 7 SDK. Note
that this configuration is not currently used to build any
python.org-supplied installers and that the private copy of
OpenSSL requires its own root certificates.
Among other issues, the Apple-supplied 0.9.7 libs for the 10.5 ABI cannot
verify newer SHA-256 certs as now used by python.org services. Document
in the installer ReadMe some of the certificate management issues that
users now need to be more concerned with due to PEP 476's enabling cert
verification by default. For now, continue to use the Apple-supplied
0.9.8 libs for the 10.6+ installer since they use Apple private APIs to
verify certificates using the system- and user-managed CA keychain stores.
because the Doc Makefile has been changed to no longer download sphinx
and its dependencies, build-installer.py now requires that there be an
externally-supplied sphinx-build available.
