as also mentioned current python cryptography requires rust which is
not available on aix. but if you are that smart go on porting it to aix and give something back to the community.
Just to mention - Rust IS available for AIX, it is in Beta testing phase and is not included in the official Rust compiler.
The modern Cryptography package is ported to AIX and was given back to the community including source code and building procedure:
- https://dl.power-devops.com/python3.9-cryptography-41.0.2-1.aix7.3.ppc.rpm (binary)
- https://dl.power-devops.com/python3.9-cryptography-41.0.2-1.src.rpm (source)
But I wouldn't use it because of CVE. If you wish you can upgrade it to 41.0.7 and contribute back to the community ;-)
