pip3.9 show cryptography

Can you tell me the outputs of the above two?
I think this issue has to do with some version mismatch at first glance in terms of what openssl was used to build pyopenssl and cryptography.

Hello Aditya,
sorry for my late response, I was on vacation.
Here is the output you requested:

Thanks for getting into this.
Hopefully that helps. If you need more, please feel free to contact me.

@Joerg Kauke
Hi,
Can you give me a small code to reproduce?
Also, what is the outputs of
# pip3 show pyOpenSSL cryptography??
And which openssl are you using?

Not a single idea?
So we will try and build venv for Python with the old modules.
Thanks to all who looked into it.
Kind regards

Dear team,
dear community.
We are planning to update our environment to AIX 7.3 TL3 and all RPM's to the newest level. For this I have a bunch of test systems for trying.
Unfortunately, after update all RPM's from the toolbox incl. python3.9 and its python crypto modul, we are facing following errors with salt:
salt-call state.highstate[ERROR ] Failed to import module tls, this is due most likely to a syntax error:Traceback (most recent call last): File

'X509_V_FLAG_NOTIFY_POLICY'
I tried to downgrade salt and the python crypto modul with no success.
The salt highstate seems to run successfully even with that error, but it would look better without.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks for your time in advance.
kind regards,
Joerg
