Thank you for your report but please stop filing all of these separate issues. :) As is true on many platforms, you can't build Python on macOS without additional third-party libraries. The Python Developer's Guide, among other places, has more information. https://devguide.python.org/setup/#macos-and-os-x

Hi,

All issue opened seems to be the same:
https://bugs.python.org/issue41019
https://bugs.python.org/issue41018
https://bugs.python.org/issue41017
https://bugs.python.org/issue41016

Maybe should be great close them?

I'm closing the ssl related issue. Please follow the documentation to install the necessary dependencies.

openssl brew installed and upto date.
despite build says it could not build the ssl module.
i followed the macos instructions at the dev guide.

svaddi@cpython % brew --prefix openssl
/usr/local/opt/openssl@1.1

You appear to be using the Developer Guide recipe for Python versions < 3.7. Try this one to get everything:

CPPFLAGS="-I$(brew --prefix openssl)/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L$(brew --prefix openssl)/lib" \
--with-openssl=$(brew --prefix openssl) \
./configure --with-pydebug
