SSL issues raspberry pi

[giladbarkai]

On a raspberry pi, with latest distribution of raspbian and all packages up-to-date, I'm getting an SSL error.

Execution and error:

root@raspberrypi:# cloudprint
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/packages/urllib3/util/ssl_.py:100: InsecurePlatformWarning: A true SSLContext object is not available. This prevents urllib3 from configuring SSL appropriately and may cause certain SSL connections to fail. For more information, see https://urllib3.readthedocs.org/en/latest/security.html#insecureplatformwarning.

Appranetly it doesn't affect others - I have no idea what's special about my setup.

The URL in your failure report looks like it has the answers

First, it says that Python 2.7.9 or newer fixes this. Python2.7.10 is in the Raspbian repository, and the version referenced in stable is 2.7.9. So, upgrading to Jessie should fix this.

Alternatively, it says you should be able to work around this with 'pip install pyopenssl ndg-httpsclient pyasn1'. That sounds simpler.
