Cannot install Cryptography 42 on PyPy 3.8 on Windows

[parafoxia]

I understand this is a very specific issue, but since Python 3.8 is still officially supported, I thought I'd let you know. Pinning the version to 41 (or at least <42) fixes the issue. It installs fine on MacOS and Linux.

Here's some additional context:

• Python version: PyPy 7.3.11 with Python 3.8.16
• Cryptography version: 42.0.2
• Pip version: 23.1 (I think?)

Here's the GitHub Actions job I noticed the problem in: https://github.com/parafoxia/analytix/actions/runs/7832614747/job/21386253883

If there's any further information you need, please let me know.

While Python 3.8 is supported, PyPy 3.8 (which is what you're running here) is not (you won't see it on https://www.pypy.org/download.html), and therefore we do not publish wheels for it.

If you meet the build requirements you can probably still build for it, but we don't publish pre-built wheels for it anymore.

Oh right, I didn't know that. That's fine then, I'll close this. Thanks for the quick reply!

I guess I'll just note: the logs aren't verbose enough for me to prove this, but I imagine it works on macOS and Linux only because the Github Actions Runner comes with OpenSSL and other needed dependencies pre-installed, whereas they're not on Windows.
